Fighter of the Destiny

Ever since he was picked up by his master by the creek, the sentence Chen Changsheng heard the most was: Your life is not good. Especially on the night when he was ten years old, after his body overflowed with strange fragrance, these five words were like a comment that always stayed in his heart.

If you want to get rid of a bad fate, there are only two ways. One is to practice to the realm of Shenyin, which is naturally not in the wheel of life - but the realm of Shenyin only exists in legends, even the one who once Whether the invincible Doufu has entered the hidden realm of the gods is still a question.

The second method is naturally to change one's destiny against nature. According to rumors and at the same time, Master also told him that since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, only three people had successfully changed their fate against the will of heaven. Those three people all had extraordinary talents and world-wide power. He was just an ordinary person. How could he do it? Do it?

Whether you can do it or not, it is something that must be done. So he was going to take part in the imperial examination, and he had to get the first place, so that he could have the opportunity to enter Lingyan Pavilion, which was strictly forbidden to anyone, to see the people in the portraits, and to see what they left behind.

Lingyan Pavilion houses the portraits of twenty-four heroes during Taizong's reign. Later, other famous officials were painted here after their deaths. What is really important is the first twenty-four paintings. Those twenty-four portraits may contain evidence and clues for the Zhou Dynasty's second successful change of destiny.

Chen Changsheng woke up from his deep thoughts, looked back from somewhere in the palace, and looked back at the little girl sitting on the floor.

He likes this child very much, but he cannot accept her as a student - the little girl lives in Baicao Garden and was assassinated by the demons the night before. Her origin must be extraordinary. The most likely reason is that she is the descendant of the royal family who was sent to other counties by the Holy Queen. , and was secretly taken back by the empress. How could such a person be provoked?

And he didn't want to mislead anyone.

I'm going to wash up and take a rest. You go home first and don't follow me.

Chen Changsheng said, deliberately making his tone and expression appear colder, and left the library without waiting for the little girl to refuse.

He just hopes that the other party can retreat despite the difficulties. At night, I returned to the library and saw that the little girl was not there. I finally relaxed and continued to use starlight to cleanse my marrow. In the meditative state, I unknowingly waited for the morning light to come, and another night passed.

All those stars had entered his body, but he still didn't know this. He only knew that his skin and hair had not changed at all, and that the marrow cleansing had not made any progress. But he was used to this, but when he opened his eyes, he felt a little empty in his right arm, which he was not used to.

He was silent for a while, then left the library and returned to the small building to take a shower.

The hot water in the wooden barrel emits mist, slowly rising along the ivy on the wall, and then being cut into countless smoke-like strands. He soaked in the hot water and leaned against the wall of the barrel with his eyes closed, feeling a little tired. The campus was so quiet in the early morning, and he always felt that something was missing.

Just like when I opened my eyes before, I found something missing from my right arm.

There was no clear and pleasant voice, no one holding his arms lovingly.

In just a few days, he got used to the little girl's presence. Thinking of this, he felt a little embarrassed and his face became a little hot, and then he realized that no matter how hard he cultivated and meditated, he still could not completely get rid of the influence of vanity and other emotions.

He put a wet towel on his face, not wanting his slightly hot face to be seen by the morning light.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang on the courtyard wall on the side of the barrel, smoke and dust rose, and the masonry collapsed.

Chen Changsheng took off his towel and looked over in shock. Among the smoke and dust, there was a faint...large hole in the courtyard wall.

The smoke and dust gradually disappeared, and Luoluo walked through the big hole in the courtyard wall.

She turned around and saw Chen Changsheng in the barrel. She was extremely happy and said, The location was correct, it's here!

These words were not spoken to Chen Changsheng, but to the tribesmen and subordinates behind her who were holding mason's tools.

Suddenly, behind the quiet building, under the old wall, there was the sound of dense construction.

None of the busy people looked at the barrel, as if they couldn't see the boy in the barrel.

Looking at this busy construction scene, Chen Changsheng felt that the water in the barrel was cooling rapidly, and his body was also getting colder. He was so shocked that he couldn't speak at all. He opened his mouth slightly like a fool. He felt that this scene was so ridiculous, and that he was even more ridiculous in this scene.

Not long after, a brand new wooden door appeared between the courtyard walls.

Those people returned to the Herb Garden like a tide. Once the wooden door was closed, the Chinese Academy of Education was as quiet as before.

Well, there's one more door, and one more person.

It will be much more convenient to come here every day. We don't have to take a carriage.

Luoluo put her hands on her waist and looked at the door, feeling very satisfied.

There was silence and no one answered her.

She looked back and saw Chen Changsheng holding the barrel with both hands like a frozen quail, looking very amused.

Luoluo said seriously: Sir, please continue and don't worry about me.

Suddenly, Chen Changsheng's expression became extremely serious, with infinite fear in his eyes.

He looked at the blue sky behind her and said with a trembling voice: Dragon?!

Luoluo was startled, and when she looked back, she saw that the sky was blue, and there was no dragon.

At this moment, the sound of rushing water came from behind her.

She turned around and looked around, only to see Chen Changsheng put on his coat very quickly, took out the bucket, and ran towards the woods, running and dripping water all the way, looking as embarrassed as a dog in the water, even more so. Like a lost dog.

Looking at this scene, Luoluo couldn't help but laugh out loud, waved at his back and shouted: Sir, you will always come back!

Chen Changsheng's figure disappeared at the edge of the woods.

The smile on Luoluo's face gradually faded, looking a little sad, and she sighed softly: Sir, why don't you accept me?

…

…

Chen Changsheng was soaked all over, his black hair was disheveled, and he didn't even have shoes on his feet. He felt so embarrassed, and he didn't dare to go back to the Chinese Academy of Education to change clothes. He couldn't find a place to go in a Kyoto city, because he had no face to see anyone, and he couldn't even find a place to go. No one can help.

Although the inn outside the Tianshu Mausoleum was still there, it was too far to walk from the north of the city. He didn't want to be arrested by the soldiers of the City Patrol Department for being disheveled and obstructing the view of the imperial city. In the end, he had no choice but to I had no choice but to go to Tiandao Temple which was relatively nearby.

He successfully attracted the attention and ridicule of the students of Tiandao Academy, but he could only pretend that he couldn't see or hear it, until he finally found Tang Sanliu's residence and kicked in the door without hesitation, his expression He solemnly said: Borrow me a set of clean clothes, I owe you a favor.

Tang Sanliu looked at his appearance. He was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly. However, the time gap before and after was a bit far, which made him seem a little dull, or his reaction was too slow. But these laughters, to Chen Changsheng, Still so jarring.

Rare guest...really rare guest...what's wrong with you?

Although I have never been willing to wear other people's clothes, I can't help it now, so please hurry up.

Chen Changsheng's tone was very serious.

Tang Sanliu could feel that if he was slower, this guy might be really angry. He forced himself to hold back his smile, got up and found a pair of clean clothes for him, and threw two towels over: Put your hair and feet away. Wipe it, don’t worry, they are all new towels.”

Thanks.

Chen Changsheng tidied himself up as quickly as possible, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief. After looking around, he realized that this guy was indeed the thirty-sixth genius on the Qingyun Ranking, and he was actually in a place like Tiandaoyuan. He could also have his own separate small building, but looking at the waste paper on the floor, the leftover food from an unknown day, and the random piles of debris on the tables, chairs and beds, he found that although the small building was big, there was no A place where you can sit.

Sit down. Tang Sanliu didn't realize the pain he was feeling at this time.

Where to sit? Chen Changsheng asked seriously.

Only then did Tang Thirty-Six remember that this guy had some quirks, so he stood up helplessly and said, Let's go eat.

Walking along the road to Tiandaoyuan to the outside of the courtyard, Chen Changsheng once again attracted a lot of attention, but this time it was not because of his embarrassed appearance, but because he was walking side by side with Tang Sanliu. The students at Tiandao Academy were very surprised, wondering who this young man was, who could actually talk and laugh with Tang Sanliu, who was known for being arrogant and indifferent?

Sitting down in a very elegant dining room outside Tiandaoyuan, Tang Sanliu suddenly thought of something, frowned, looked at him and said seriously: I went to the inn once and saw the note you left... Did you really enter the National Education Academy?

Chen Changsheng nodded and said, What are you doing these days?

In fact, he wanted to ask Tang Sanliu why he didn't look for him when he knew that he had entered the National Education Academy. He knew that he was the only one he knew in Kyoto. Although he had always believed that he could endure loneliness, but if he could not Loneliness is also good.

It's just that with his temperament, it's really difficult to ask directly.

Hearing him personally admit that he had entered the National Education Academy, Tang Sanliu's expression became a little solemn, but seeing him change the topic, he thought that this guy didn't want to talk about his sad things, so he responded: The Ivy Banquet will be held soon, I Although you are not afraid of anyone, you must always make some preparations.”

Chen Changsheng thought, what is the Ivy Banquet?

Tang Thirty-Six said again: Speaking of which, how did you end up like this? During the imperial examination, I just wanted to be in the top three, so I couldn't do it every day. Since your goal is to be in the top three, why don't you? Are you in the mood to have a water fight with others? Or...have you encountered something?

I really can't stay there any longer at the National Education Academy.

Chen Changsheng thought about what he had experienced in the past few days, and thought that no matter whether he opened his eyes or closed them, took a bath or read a book, he could still see the little girl, and he couldn't help but feel a little downcast. For him, this was an extremely difficult emotion.

Tang Sanliu thought that he was studying in the National Education Academy and suffered endless indifference, contempt and humiliation. He couldn't help but sympathize with him. He reached out and patted his shoulder and said: If it doesn't work, just come out from there. I...write a letter. Let you go to Wenshui to study.

Chen Changsheng sighed.

Tang Sanliu was a little displeased when he saw his frowning face, thinking that you were so calm and calm when you were ruthlessly eliminated by Tiandao Academy and Star Reaching Academy, otherwise I wouldn't value you, so why are you like this now? Like? Is the National Education College really a cursed place?

Drink some wine and get some sleep.

He asked the boss to bring two pots of extremely strong wine and pushed one pot in front of Chen Changsheng.

Chen Changsheng looked at the wine bottle, a little curious, and then said honestly: I have never drunk it.

Tang Thirty-Six patted the mud seal away for him and said, If you drink it today, you have drank it.

Chen Changsheng had something on his mind, and Tang Sanliu actually had something on his mind too. To be honest, the two young men were not very familiar with each other and didn't know much about each other. Naturally, they had nothing to talk about, so they had to drink in silence with their wine bowls in hand. Yes, this is the so-called drunkenness.

The easiest way to get drunk is to drink too much, especially for a guy like Chen Changsheng who is just drinking for the first time.

Of course, Tang Sanliu's drinking capacity was not much better.

A genius like me doesn't have time to attend the Ivy Banquet, but those idiot Kyoto students actually dare to doubt my master's strength...

Tang Sanliu looked at the students wearing Tiandao Academy uniforms outside the fence and said with a sneer: I will definitely slap those people in the face this time!

Chen Changsheng held the wine bowl in both hands and narrowed his eyes slightly. He was obviously drunk. He asked slurred words: What exactly is the Ivy Banquet?... Can... can there be any... good food?... Yes Do you want wine?

…

…

There are six oldest and most respected academies in Kyoto, including the Tendo Academy, the Star Reaching Academy, and the Zongsi Temple...

The vicissitudes of history are all reflected in the ivy outside the gates of these six colleges, so these six colleges are called the Sixth Ivy Courtyard. Only students from the Sixth Ivy Courtyard can directly take the imperial exam without taking the preparatory exam. From this, we can imagine the status of these six colleges.

The preparatory exams for the Dachao Examination are usually held in the summer. The Sixth College of Qingteng does not need to take the preparatory exams, but they do not want students to miss an opportunity to hone themselves. Therefore, when the results of the preparatory exams for the Dachao Examination are announced, the Sixth College will invite those who have passed the preparatory exams. The students taking the exam and the students from the Sixth Academy attended a grand banquet together.

Because students from the Sixth Ivy League School participated in this banquet, it was much more intense than the preparatory exam. History has also proven that the rankings obtained from this banquet are basically very close to the final rankings of the imperial examinations, so they are gradually regarded as the weather vane of the imperial examinations.

Of course, the ranking here definitely does not include those students who are still in the south and those monastic geniuses who will not take action easily.

This banquet is the Ivy Banquet.

With Tang Sanshiliu's temperament, he didn't even bother to participate in the Ivy Banquet. But his relationship with the vice-president of Tiandaoyuan was deliberately exposed a few days ago, and he was subject to some rumors. Several strong young men from the Sixth Ivy Academy who were also on the Qingyun Ranking showed disdain for this. attitude, so he decided to participate.

For this reason, he practiced hard in seclusion in Tiandao Academy. Even though he knew that Chen Changsheng had gone to the National Education Academy, he didn't have time to go see it.

Chen Changsheng put down the wine bowl, covered his lips with his hands, burped, apologized a little embarrassedly, and then said, I wish you success.

Since the Ivy Banquet is a contest between those so-called geniuses, it naturally has nothing to do with him.

He thought so, but he forgot that the National Education College he was currently studying in was also one of the Six Ivy Colleges.

Of course, the world seems to have forgotten this.

Luoluo will be officially collected tomorrow!
