Chapter 140: Ice and Fire

September 27, the tenth year of the Great Jin Chengping.

The sky was bright.

"Ahh

There was a roar of liberation from inside the house!

What's wrong...... What's wrong......"

Then an exclamation rang out.

Xiao Liuzi, who was sleeping soundly on the table, was suddenly frightened, the whole person trembled twice, and quickly raised his head to look left and right, only to find that Li Xian was sitting on the Taishi chair and stretching, and there was no other special situation.

'Scared me!'

Xiao Liuzi breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had collapsed, slumped softly on the table, wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve casually, looked at Li Xian with an excited look, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Poor Brother Li. ’

Li Xian's eyes were red, his face was red with oil, his hair was messy, although his spirit was not bad, but his patience was close to the limit at this time. He hadn't slept for two whole days, and he hadn't stopped for twenty-four hours to read the books.

The medicinal herbs and pills that filled the whole room were visibly reduced by more than half to the naked eye, and to be honest, eating so many great tonic things was just to maintain a state of high spirits, so as not to be unable to control his heart ape, which was also the reason why his face was flushed.

To be honest, this kind of desperate effort really has the feeling that the college entrance examination is coming.

In the past two days, Cui Sheng has not only ordered his soldiers to come with military books, but also books on astronomy and geography.

It is definitely impossible to learn thoroughly, and it is gnawed but gnawed, and it will be a whole two days...... The books sent by Cui Sheng were basically eaten by him!

At this time, Li Xian was extremely grateful to the master for spending a great deal of effort to let him understand his mind and see his nature, and in the days to come, because of this, the power of his mind and spirit steadily improved.

The power of the mind can't make people become a supreme genius all at once, and it's a bit ridiculous...... But it's not hard to keep this in mind.

With the last page of the book closed with him again, he couldn't take it anymore and couldn't wait to take a break.

"Suck-"

He took a slight breath and silently ran his qi and blood, and the boiling qi and blood caused by swallowing a large amount of supplements in the past two days were quickly absorbed by the bones of his whole body.

The cells in the limbs are already salivating for the 'nutrients' in these qi and blood...... The feeling of wanting to eat but not being able to eat is simply too aggrieved.

With the cooperation of the owner, the 'nutrition' was quickly absorbed and strengthened by the 'baby' who was waiting to be fed, and the red cheeks from the outside world gradually returned to their normal rosiness.

As soon as my mind relaxed, endless exhaustion and sleepiness suddenly came to my mind, and I couldn't hold it anymore.

With a pop, Li Xian fell asleep on the table and let out a shocking snort.

Some people are relaxed, and some people are sad.

On a large pile of books piled up on the desktop, the little blue and black snake was lying on the pages of an open book, looking at Li Xian who was sleeping sadly.

'This human being is mad! not even a snake will be spared!'

Li Xian suffered in order to be the only one who suffered, so it can be said that he not only pulled Xiao Liuzi over to accompany him, but also pulled this little snake with human nature into the water.

His task for this little snake is to learn to write! Learn to write the Great Jin script!

The book of the little snake is the book that the Great Jin Dynasty government has spent decades to carefully compile a unified script, a collector's edition!

It is conceivable that the reaction of the snake master when he heard this kind of frenzied request at that time, he almost felt that the snake was collapsing! But Li Xian still looked like he had eaten it, if he didn't do it, he wouldn't be able to learn, and he would wait to be made into snake soup.

It just so happens that he needs to make up for it!

What a shame!

The snake master has lived for hundreds of years without suffering such grievances...... ...... it right away

From the heart!

Can the matter of reading be called a matter? Master Snake is willing!

Fortunately, Li Xian did not force it to ...... all words As long as you can do simple communication, as for how to communicate simply, it depends on the little snake's brain.

So Li Xian didn't sleep for two days and two nights, and the little snake also followed the day and night to learn, of course, it didn't eat less meat and pills on the ground.

In fact, the little snake knew human writing hundreds of years ago, and as for why a snake python in the mountains learned human writing, that's another story. But hundreds of years ago it learned the font, that is varied.

It is fundamentally different from the current unification, and now the unified text of the Great Jin Dynasty that Li Xian threw to it is the real standard.

Fortunately, there is a foundation, and although some can't be seen, they can be guessed just by guessing.

It's just a matter of writing it down......

From this point of view, one man and one snake are really alike!

"Hiss-" The snake master couldn't help but spit out the snake letter, and carefully hissed slightly, for fear of disturbing Li Xian.

Looking at Li Xian's sleeping appearance, sleepiness also swept up! The snake master thought about his learning progress......

'Hmm...... There is a spectrum!'

nodded the snake's head, directly found a shady place, coiled the snake's body and fell asleep.

This scene was all seen by Xiao Liuzi who was lying on the table, and when he saw that one person and one snake were all asleep, he shook his head helplessly.

For the blue and black little snake, Xiao Liuzi was still a little scared at first...... After all, the shadow left by the previous mountain village is still vivid, and this little snake is too human.

But then I looked at this little snake as if it was very docile, and I didn't feel terrible after watching it for a long time.

If the snake master knew Xiao Liuzi's thoughts, maybe he would find a day when Li Xian was not there to teach this stupid human a lesson, and let him know what is called the power of Yandang Mountain!

Xiao Liuzi stretched, yawned, and closed the door lightly.

syllable

The light that had just been put into the room was quickly muffled, leaving behind a loud snoring.

......

......

Noon

Li Xian walked out of the courtyard refreshed, and after a few hours of rest and a bath after waking up, he suddenly felt that he was alive again.

He didn't have many friends in the wilderness, Situ Bao was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground, and he probably didn't have time to find him for a drink, so after thinking about it, he planned to go to find Yan Lao.

carpenter's shop,

An old man and a young man each moved a small stool and sat in the doorway, sawdust falling from their fingers under the flying of the carving knife.

"Hey, heyβ€”"

At first, Li Xian didn't care, and concentrated on carving the woodblock in his hand.

"Hey, heyβ€”"

When he turned his head, he found that Yan Lao was concentrating on carving the wood carving in his hand, looking extremely focused, but from time to time there would be laughter in his mouth, and the gray beard on his chin also trembled, which looked extremely obscene!?

Huh? Elder Yan, what's wrong with you today?"

Li Xian sighed lightly and asked suspiciously.

This little old man has been here since he came...... There was a smile on his face all the time, and to be exact, the smile on his face never closed.

After taking a serious look at Yan Laolai, he found that his complexion, qi and blood were much better than usual!

'Is it ......?'

When Li Xian saw this, an incredible thought appeared in his heart, and he immediately asked directly:

"No, Elder Yan! Are you really rejuvenating your second spring? Whose grandmother?"

"Oh! what nonsense?"

As soon as he said this, the old man immediately blushed and stretched out his hand to hit Li Xian.

Li Xian dodged in a flash, and saw that the old man's reaction was even more determined, and he looked surprised!

"Really!"

The atmosphere between men and women in Dajin is actually not very strict, and it is quite open. Moreover, because of Qi, the martial arts are strong, and many women's martial arts cultivation is not weak!

Li Xian had a gossip expression on his face, and the gossip fire in his heart was burning.

Tsk...... Elder Yan, you are really!" Li Xian gave a thumbs up to Elder Yan, and asked again curiously: "Which family's grandmother ......?"

Yan Lao looked at Li Xian, a bastard boy, with a gossipy look on his face, and he was angry, what was in the melon seeds in this bastard boy's head.

But the truth of the matter cannot be put into words.

He could only glare at Li Xian fiercely.

"Hiss-" Elder Yan's appearance made Li Xian more and more convinced.

"Whose grandma? Could it be...... Mama, a young girl, that's why you're so embarrassed, Elder Yan?"

The more Li Xian guessed, the more boundless he became.

"You bastard, eat an old man's broom!"

Yan Lao was so angry that one Buddha ascended to heaven, and the second Buddha went out of his body, if he was spread by Li Xian, a bastard boy, his reputation in his later years would be gone, so he got up and picked up the broom in the house and hit Li Xian directly.

The old man and the young man ran blindly on the street, chasing and beating each other.

Many passers-by stopped to look at the two of them.

Alright...... All right...... I was wrong, I was wrong!"

"Humph!"

Elder Yan looked panting, holding his waist and staring at him viciously.

Li Xian was really afraid that the little old man's waist and legs would flash, so he could only obediently admit his mistake, stepped forward to take the broom in Yan Lao's hand, and helped him back to the small chair in the house to sit down.

Turned around and picked up the teapot and poured him a glass of water......

At this time, Li Xian subconsciously sniffed the wings of his nose and smelled a very good woody smell, giving people a very comfortable feeling.

While holding the teacup and handing it to Yan Lao, he asked, "Yan Lao, what kind of gift have you prepared?"

"Gifts?"

Elder Yan took the water, blinked his eyes, and said, "What gift?"

"When I first poured the water, I smelled a nice smell of grass and trees, do you want to give a gift to someone?"

Yan Lao's face froze for a moment, his lips snorted twice, and finally gave up again.

stood up and pushed Li Xian out.

Today...... That's all for today, that's all for today. β€œ

"Elder Yan, do you know what rice tastes like?"

Hearing this, the push behind him suddenly slowed down.

"What do you want to say, stinky boy?"

"That's right, you know how to cook raw rice, don't be afraid of this kind of thing...... Don't worry, I'll definitely support you!"

It's been a few days since Wuju, care about yourself...... And this old man who cares about me. ”

Yan Lao was completely too lazy to talk nonsense with Li Xian.

Li Xian's face was helpless, he didn't dare to turn back hard, this little old man had small arms and legs, and he had to fall down as soon as he exerted his strength.

I was pushed all the way out of the shop, and I just wanted to turn back.

With a snap, the wooden door was slammed shut, and a nose of ash was eaten.

'As for the little old man?'

Li Xian looked at the closed wooden door and shook his head helplessly, with a happy smile on his face.

During this time together, even if he didn't deliberately investigate, he also knew some stories of Yan Lao just through the usual chat, his son didn't know the news decades ago, and his wife died in childbirth when she gave birth!

Now that he is getting old, it is also a good choice for him to have a companion.

Li Xian kept teasing Yan Lao just now, in fact, he just wanted him to be more open-minded, but he didn't expect this old man to say so much, and he suddenly became angry.

You must know that there was such a fight between the two in the past, and there were a lot of pornographic jokes, is it because they are really shy because they really have a second spring?

Li Xian touched his chin, it should be like this!

'This little old man. ’

A smile hung on the corner of his mouth, Sure enough, it's good to come and talk to the old man when it's okay.

tidied up the armor on his body and went back to the county government directly.

Two points and one line are extremely regular.

Just two steps away, a lively voice sounded in Li Xian's ears.

Big Brother ...... What is called raw rice cooked rice? β€œ

Li Xian turned his head and found that there was no one, and then lowered his head to find a little girl standing in front of him.

It looks like she is only about ten years old, with faint willow eyebrows, a pink carved face, and a skirt, she looks like the daughter of a rich family.

Scratching his cheeks a little embarrassed, he bent over to look at the little girl, and a smile appeared on his face: "It's just simple rice that turns into mature rice after hot water......"

Silently changed the subject: "Are you here to find a shop here?"

Hmm...... I want to buy the wood carvings here, and I heard that it is very good. The little girl replied softly with her hands behind her back.

Li Xian said: "It is estimated that this old man doesn't want to open the door now, you can come back tomorrow to take a look." ”

Okay......"

The little girl was a little dejected, and muttered, "Then I can only go to another house." ”

Li Xian had a smile on his face and reminded, "You should have come out by yourself...... Go back early, or the family will be worried. ”

The little girl took a serious look at Li Xian...... His eyes were bent into a beautiful crescent, he nodded, and jumped away.

"Whew-" Li Xian exhaled and put the half-carved wood carving in his arms.

The snake master who was coiled in his arms felt that something was stuffed in, and the position was suddenly much smaller, and he didn't dare to attack, so he could only humbly squeeze it to the edge.

'Okay, let's go back and read.' ’

The tall figure blended into the sea of people and walked back to the county office.

Only this time, Li Xian stopped abruptly as soon as he walked a distance, and his eyes showed a look of joy.

This time he was sure he was not mistaken!

Three steps into two steps, and tapped one of the people in front of him on the shoulder.

"Uncle Qingshi. ”

Hearing the familiar call, the middle-aged man who was walking in front of him turned his head suddenly, and the surprise and disbelief on his face emerged from his eyes.

The man is Wanxi Village, Zhang Qingshi, the son of Zhang Taigong!

Zhang Qingshi took a step back, looking at the mighty man in front of him wearing the armor of a hundred generals with a surprised expression, and a little strange.

"Uncle Bluestone......"

The familiar voice sounded in his ears again, and Zhang Qingshi carefully looked at the man in front of him, and the smile on the corner of his mouth expanded little by little.

"Xiao Xian!! it's really you!"

Uncle Qingshi is me. ”

Zhang Qingshi was so excited that he couldn't even speak.

Oh my God! You...... You ......"

It was at this time.

A little ripple rippled in the heart lake, and the familiar feeling of being watched resurfaced.

trample

trample

trample

Ripples splashed, and a figure rushed over at great speed......

Li Xian stood directly in front of Zhang Qingshi.

A teenager in the crowd broke through the sea of people and came to Li Xian...... Kneel down!

syllable

Li Xian raised his foot against the kneeling knee of the young man, and then pulled him up and picked him up.

Just the first time they looked at each other, Li Xian frowned deeply.

bitterness

Intense, bitter hatred.

The young man's eyes were burning with a flame soul called revenge, this kind of look Li Xian was very familiar with, he had it, and others had seen it!

Before Li Xian could speak,

This young man, who was only thirteen or fourteen years old, said directly: "Master Jun...... Let me follow you, I want to kill the barbarians!"

His voice was dry and hoarse, and when he mentioned the barbarian, his eyes were blood-red, and his pale lips were bloodied.

At this time, many pedestrians around looked at Li Xian......

The boy raised his head, undisguised the hatred in his eyes.

Zhang Qingshi hadn't recovered from the surprise of meeting Li Xian, and suddenly encountered the scene of the young man kneeling down and begging for revenge, he was stunned for a while, looked at Li Xian and then at the young man, and didn't understand what was going on here.

burst

The boy is on his knees again!

"Stand up......"

Li Xian glanced at it and said indifferently.

The boy had no intention of standing up.

"Do you think this trick works?"

The boy's body trembled slightly, his fists clenched, and his palms were deeply cut by his fingernails, leaving blood.

A slight sound of the nail leaf crashing,

Li Xian's eyes were very indifferent, and he half-squatted down and looked at the young man.

Between the two, indifference and revenge look at each other!

Fire and ice!

......
