After walking for about half an hour, Yao Xian finally came to his destination, the area around the lake was very quiet, and the green and blue lake surface was so calm that even the ripples could not be seen. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Tall trees all around keep the sun and heat out, and there is even a hint of cool air in the shade of the trees by the lake.

Yao Yan walked tired, thirsty and hot, found a lush grass hula and fell down all of a sudden, lying on the turf and emptying his head and thinking about nothing.

Xu didn't think about anything, her body senses were strong, from the occasional hunger at the beginning to hunger, Yao Xi could no longer lie quietly, her stomach was uncomfortable, and she could only turn over in the end.

In fact, there is still dry food with him, but the baked cake is already as hard as a stone, and he has eaten the same thing for half a month, Yao Yan looked at the dry food, even if he was hungry at the moment, he had no appetite for dry food.

----Something popped out of the lake and quickly fell again, making a splash.

Yao Yan's eyes lit up, he quickly got up, walked around the lake, and finally returned to his original place with a bunch of trees, vines, vines, and various vines.

Sitting down again, the vines crossed and knotted each other in her hands, and at last they became a net, and she took the net to a good place by the lake, and spread it out at once.

There are few people from this lake, and there are many fish, Yao Xi didn't wait long to net two fish up, when she went out, she brought enough things, not only knives, fire folds or something, she happily found a pile of firewood, cut the fish, and lit firewood, and soon the two fish were roasted on the fire.

Yao Shi lay on the side, watching the crackling of matches, and was finally ready to think seriously, but before she could think about it, she heard footsteps approaching, accompanied by the voice of an old man.

"Walking around the pond to watch the fish swim, just as the children are making nets, you child, this fish live freely and cheerfully, how can you easily end their lives. ”

The sound of the pouting seemed to express regret, even pity for the already half-cooked fish.

Yao Yan squinted at the person who was already standing next to him, who looked to be in his sixties, his gray beard trembling as he spoke, but other than that, the old man looked red and energetic.

She sat up, turned the fish over and lay down again, smiling disdainfully: "I naturally want to eat it when I'm hungry, these days, such a compassionate heart is rare, the old man is afraid that people will not let people wipe their buttocks." ”

When the old man heard her say this, he immediately nodded in agreement: "Since I'm hungry, there's no way to do it, haha---- little girl is so lonely to eat alone, and this meal has to be shared." ”

Saying that, he sat down next to Yao Xian and went to rummage over the grilled fish, shaking his head while watching: "This can't be done, this fish gave your life for you, but you ate it so hastily, aren't you sorry for its death." ”

The old man took out a few porcelain bottles from the cloth bag, and pounded on the grilled fish for a while, and within a moment, Yao Xi smelled the fragrance, she sniffed and sat up again.

"Old man, what are you putting here, don't be poisonous. She stared suspiciously at the strange old man who appeared inexplicably.

The old man laughed, shook his head and regretted: "Such a small girl, how can she be so suspicious, this is not good, I want to eat it too, naturally I have to make it more delicious." ”

Yao Yan stopped talking, hugged his legs and looked at the old man carefully, the latter did not feel uncomfortable, and let Yao Yan look at him.

"The old man should be a reader. Yao Yan asked, she had noticed what the old man said just now, and she had read the book as soon as she heard it.

The old man smiled and said: "It's not uncommon for there to be a lot of reading in recent years, but if you ask this, you are also a reader." ”

Yao Yan tilted his head, not seeing any inappropriate emotions on his face, so he nodded, and his tone was a little lower: "I was originally preparing for the county exam, but I didn't pass the exam, and now I'm annoyed." You say--- what other way can I take besides the road of the examination?"

She not only asked the old man, but also asked herself, yes, how else could she go, although she swore that she would find a way again, but where was this method so easy to find.

The old man continued to make the grilled fish, and asked, "Then it depends on what you want." ”

"What I want---" Yao Xian thought about the answer for a while, and what she wanted was always very clear: "I want to go to Yangshan Academy, and after three years of study, I will become a teacher." ”

She hadn't thought about going to the office, it was impossible, and she wasn't that ambitious.

But if he can successfully come out of Yangshan Academy for three years, even if he is just a teacher, he is quite respected and welcomed.

As a teacher, the best thing is to teach the emperor, and the most important thing is to teach at various official schools.

"Haha--- Yangshan Academy, the little girl is not small. The old man laughed.

Yao Xi knew that he was going to say this, after all, Yangshan Academy was not something that could be attended if she wanted to, she shrugged her shoulders indifferently, "How do you know if you can't do it if you haven't tried it, you see that others don't accept it from one of my daughters." “

The old man shook his head: "It will be accepted, for Yangshan Academy, you are not the first female disciple, provided that you can really be admitted." ”

Yes---- if you want to go to Yangshan Academy, you first have to pass the college exam, but now that the county exam is messed up, how can this be good.

Yao Yan held his cheeks and looked sad.

The old man took the grilled fish and smelled it, twisted a piece with his hand, tasted it, felt that it tasted good, nodded with satisfaction, and ate it by himself.

Yao Xi was thinking about the problem, but she didn't notice the old man's movements, and when she came back to her senses, she found that there was only a small half of the two fish left.

Her eyes were fixed on the old man, and the party laughed dryly, inhaling the residual smell of fish meat on her fingers, while burping contentedly.

What do you have to do with an old man, Yao Xi took the remaining half of the fish to eat.

The old man took advantage of her to eat, and muttered while picking his teeth: "Actually, there is not only one way to go to Yangshan Academy. ”

Yao Xian paused and swallowed the fish in his mouth, a little unbelieving what he had just heard, the fox asked, "Did the old man say that ----- is there a way?"

The old man seemed to be deliberate, and smiled at Yao: "After eating---- eat first." ”

Yao Yan looked at his expression, as if he really had a way, he was in a hurry, he ate the fish in three or two bites, wiped his mouth, and then sat upright and asked: "The old man really has a way? ”

"It's not good to be too suspicious---- the old man stroked his beard, paused for a moment, and saw that Yao Yan was really sweating anxiously, and finally said slowly.
