Chapter 30: The Contest IV

Seeing that Jingxiu was so impatient, she was in Wu Yan's arms, but Wu Yan still deliberately kept a look of surprise on her face, and her bright eyes turned smartly, revealing a deep doubt, "Are you sure you don't need to explain? Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Don't talk too much nonsense. ”

"Since you have no objections, well, wait for me to write the note. ”

Saying that, Wu Yan ran to the room, tore four pieces of paper, polished the ink in the ink inkstone, took a brush, brushed the pen in the ink inkstone, and saw that the brush had absorbed enough ink, Wu Yan carried a pen with a drop of ink, trotted all the way, used the wooden pier as a table, and wrote three words on the paper "wooden man".

Wu Yan wrote this, blew a few breaths, dried the ink, crumpled it into a ball, and when she lifted the pen again, her pen shook and shook, but there was not a word written on the paper at all, but she didn't know what she was thinking, but she quickly came back to her senses, wrote three more words on the paper "wooden man", and wrote the same three words without hesitation on the remaining two notes.

It has always been said that a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, and naturally, a child who does not want to win the championship in the competition is not a good child? Wu Yan has always had clear grievances and believes that if you are good to me, I will naturally be good to you, but if you bully me, I will definitely double your creed. Thinking of the attitude of Jingxiu's master and servant towards herself and Tianshan, Wu Yan's anger was soaring again, she pressed a few points, and secretly said in her heart, this competition is not only to win, but also to punish this arrogant and rude little girl.

Thinking about it, Wu Yan put the paper ball on the palm of his hand, stretched it out in front of Jingxiu, and said, "Since you are asked to catch it, you can think about it, if you cheat, it means that you have given up on winning, and I won this game." ”

Jing Xiu glanced at Wu Yan, snorted again with disdain, and said, "Don't underestimate people......

But in the next second, she looked a little stunned when she opened the paper ball in front of her, just looked at the words on the paper ball, and even forgot to say it, Wu Yan leaned over to take a look, only to see that on the paper ball opened in her palm, the three words seemed to be earthworms crawling the soil, twisting and twisting across the paper, although it was written "wooden man", but at first glance it looked like something else. Rong'er also glanced at the paper ball in her hand, first glanced at Wu Yan suspiciously, and then glanced at Jingxiu worriedly.

Wu Yan coughed lightly, called Jingxiu back to her senses, first stretched out her hand understandingly, there were still three paper balls on her palm, and then she opened her mouth empathetically, "Don't you feel very unwilling, and want to smoke another one?"

"You ......" Jingxiu was stunned, as if Wu Yan had said what she was thinking, she raised her eyes and glanced at the remaining three paper balls.

Wu Yan had a light smile on her face, but her eyes kept on Jing Xiu's hand, and she saw her hand raised up and stretched out towards herself. But before her hand reached out to the paper ball, she opened her mouth leisurely, "But a daughter like you must be the most particular about the strict training of the family." With such a serious competition, how can you accept the attitude of selecting and selecting the content of the comparison test? It's really that I'm not serious enough and not rigorous, and when I spread it, I thought it was because my parents didn't care about my parents' education and didn't care about it. Miss Jing is not to blame. ”

Wu Yan said, put his five fingers together, and when he withdrew his hand, he casually threw the paper ball in his hand to the ground. This made Jing Xiu's face turn white with anger, her hand fell in the air, her lips were also bitten white, her eyes swirled on the paper ball in her palm, and she looked up at Wu Yan again, but saw that Wu Yan's smile was very innocent, and she couldn't tell if she was deliberately teasing herself, she could only endure this breath secretly, "Then let's start competing." I really don't know what the people of Tianshan do to try this...... What the hell. ”

Wu Yan interrupted her in a fuss and shouted, "You keep quiet, don't let others hear the joke." The piano, chess, calligraphy and painting you said are good, and they are necessary skills for talented women, but they are all superficial things, too fancy, and whoever learns for a few days or a few years will have some results, which is not interesting. It's not as good as this thing you draw, this is not a skill, it's a comparison of people's own ability, think about it, in a certain period of time, the two people in the competition maintain a posture that can't move, if whoever moves first will lose. It's not just a test of endurance, resilience, and perseverance......"

Jingxiu was defeated by Wu Yan's endless talk, and she didn't know anything about it, let alone say anything. Wu Yan saw that Jingxiu's face was lost, a little less arrogant, and he was a little relieved in his heart, and turned his head to the little maid Rong'er and said, "This incense is for you, you pinch off half of it, and after lighting the remaining half, you shout to start, and the competition between me and your young lady will begin, and when this half column of incense is burned, the time of the competition will be over, if the incense is not burned before, someone moves, whether it is cramps, blinking, or sniffing, it will be considered a loss." ”

Seeing that Rong'er pinched the incense, Jingxiu couldn't help but speak, "Just stand like this?"

"Whatever you want, as long as you don't move and don't break the rules. As for what posture to maintain, it depends on how smart your brain is. ”

When Jingxiu heard this, she looked around, only to see that the pines and cypresses were standing upright, the courtyard was empty, and the only wooden pier that could sit down aggrievedly was an incense burner with half an incense stick, she immediately walked over, picked up the incense burner and handed it to the maid Rong'er, and asked her to put it elsewhere.

Seeing this, Wu Yan hurriedly pointed at the wooden pier and snapped his fingers. So, when Jingxiu turned around, he found that a white bird had stopped on the wooden pier, and it flapped its wings on the wooden pier with a more leisurely appearance. Jing Xiu immediately scolded in his heart, and just wanted to reach out to drive the bird away, but he saw that the white bird had a vicious gaze, staring at himself vigilantly, his sharp beak was open, and he looked like he would peck you if he dared to violate me, Jing Xiu was a little worried, and his hand was still not stretched out in the end.

Wu Yan saw it in his eyes, and shouted dissatisfiedly, "The incense is about to be burned, your young lady is playing birds here, and you don't shout to start, are your masters and servants colluding with each other to delay time in order to win the competition?"

Jing Xiu saw that Wu Yan was sitting next to the tree as she came, but where could she be like her, she stomped her feet angrily, sprinkled all her anger on the maid Rong'er, and glared at Rong'er angrily, Rong'er didn't dare to say anything, and weakly shouted "start".

Wu Yan immediately closed her eyes, she followed Wu Ying to meditate in the past few days, although it was not as good as Wu Ying's skills, but it was trivial to meditate on a stick of incense. At this moment, thinking that Jingxiu was standing and had to endure half a pillar of incense without moving, it was equivalent to being punished for standing, and he didn't feel a little happy in his heart.

But in the next second, Rong'er's panicked voice suddenly came, "You...... What are you going to do? This is my young lady is competing with people, what are you doing when you extinguish the incense? Miss, young lady......

Jing Xiu originally felt bad when she saw Wu Yan with her eyes closed, but sure enough, it was only a few seconds, and she couldn't help the urge to blink, so she could only insist with her eyes puffed up. The young man who didn't want to appear suddenly kicked the incense burner on the ground, and still stepped on the incense that was still burning, she watched and endured it. Unexpectedly, she met a stupid servant girl who only cared about calling herself, she couldn't hold back her anger anymore, and she really wanted to open her mouth and scold "shut up".

But when Jingxiu was about to give up on herself and was ready to speak. The boy spoke, "Have you had enough, go back to your room when you've had enough." ”

He didn't say it to Jing Xiu, it was obviously said to Wu Yan, Wu Yan heard that it was the voice of Ying Qi, so he could only open his eyes, look at the incense burner on the ground and the extinguished incense, and smile, "The incense is extinguished, it should be regarded as shortening the time, you move first, so you lose." ”

Jingxiu didn't speak, originally no matter whether the teenager appeared or not, she estimated that she wouldn't be able to last long, she was unwilling to open her mouth to admit it. Ying Qi stopped her words, "Without a referee, your competition doesn't count." ”

He turned around to face Jing Xiu, glared at Wu Yan when he was ready, and said for a long time, "Miss Jing, I was negligent when I visited the tower today, please don't mind." But you also know that Tianshan has never been involved in political affairs, if people know that you have come to Suta, I am afraid that there will be more speculation, at that time, not only will it have an impact on Tianshan, but also on you, and even on your father and family. If it is because of a misunderstanding today, the misunderstanding has been eliminated by this time, and the competition should be abandoned. So, please pretend that you haven't been here today, okay?"

He has always had a fierce face, his tone is sincere at the moment, and his expression is gentle, but he is like a brother next door, which makes people feel close, even Jing Xiu, who has always been arrogant, can't find any reason, so he has to nod his head curtly.

He didn't know where to get a palace lamp, handed it to Rong'er, and said slowly, "I was supposed to personally send Miss Jing back to the palace, but I was afraid that someone would see it on the road, and I would ruin the girl's reputation, so I didn't dare to make a mistake." It's getting late, and there can only be Miss Lao Rong'er, please take care of your young lady all the way. ”

Jing Xiu glanced down at the palace lamp, opened her mouth for a long time, but in the end she just lowered her head, said "thank you", turned around and left.

The sun set into the sunset, and it still hung in the western sky, stretching the shadows of their master and servant, and when they turned from the courtyard gate, their people were no longer visible, but their shadows could still be seen on the ground, and they were slowly walking away.
