Coming out of the Temple of Literature, Xu Xian noticed that he had undergone some indescribable changes, the simplest of which was that his mind seemed to be a little brighter, and he naturally understood the subtle words of the sages and sages.

Back at the inn and entering the guest room, Xu Xian sat at the desk and pondered for a while, then stood up, walked to the open space in the center of the guest room, and practiced the Five Holy Piles.

The Five Holy Piles, based on the visualization of the five holy demeanors in the heart, supplemented by fixed body movements, can wisdom the mind, strengthen the limbs and body, and cultivate the majestic qi in the chest.

This time he worshiped the Temple of Literature and directly admired the golden bodies of the five saints, and Xu Xian's impression of the five saints was much clearer in his mind.

Therefore, this time when he cultivated the Five Holy Piles, he immediately felt different from usual, and a mysterious feeling filled his body.

It took him an hour to cultivate the Five Holy Stakes.

After thinking about it carefully, he couldn't help but show some smiles: "In the past, I only had a superficial knowledge of the Five Holy Piles, but now I know a little bit about it, and I can barely call it a beginner's path. ”

After a few days, after the incident in Lin'an City, Xu Xian and others finally began to return to Qiantang County.

Since Qiantang County is not far from Lin'an City, including Xu Xian, they have been in communication with their families after the hospital examination, so when they left for home, their families sent carriages.

Those with wealthy families even sent guards, such as Li Tong's family, which not only sent a two-horse carriage, but also sent eight nurses to protect Li Tong's smooth return.

In this children's test, a total of 11 people in Qiantang County were selected for the examination, and they all agreed to return to their hometowns together, so the team was very large and there was a large group.

Since it was a return trip and a triumphant trip, everyone was relaxed and happy, and the daily itinerary was casual and stop-and-go.

After passing through a place with good scenery, stop and rest, spread wine, flavor snacks, preserved fruits, etc. on the ground, sit on the ground, chant poems against each other, so unhappy.

When I went, I walked for two days, and when I came back, I walked for four days.

On the afternoon of the fourth day, Xu Xian and others finally saw the county buildings of Qiantang County from a distance.

At this time, the entire county was already boiling.

"Xiucai Gong is back! Our Xiucai Gong from Qiantang County is back! ”

People rushed and shouted.

"Our head of Qiantang County is back! Come and see! ”

……

Qiantang County's children's examination this year is much better than in previous years, and the number of Xiucai in the examination alone is four more than in previous years, not to mention Xu Xian, the head of the case of even the middle and middle school three yuan.

Therefore, this time, the enthusiasm of the fathers and villagers to watch the show and return to their hometowns was particularly high, and almost 10,000 people were crowded to the east gate of the city.

In view of the special situation, Yang Zheng, the magistrate of the county, immediately sent officials to maintain order, so as to avoid a stampede, and he was very happy and sad.

At the east gate of the city, the crowd was full of people, in addition to the people who watched Xiucai's return to his hometown, Xiucai's family members had already arrived and were ready to greet him.

"Li Zhutou, Mrs. Li, congratulations." Li Tong's father, Li Zong, said to Li Gongfu and Li Xu with a smile on his face.

Li Zong was the household warden of the Yamen of Qiantang County, and was in charge of tax collection, demanding, payment, transportation, warehousing management, private housing and land sales, deed transfer, dispute settlement, and handling such matters as deferring relief and relief for famine, and had great power. In addition, the Li family is a deep-rooted family in Qiantang County, and Li Zong's power is very strong in Qiantang County, even Yang Zheng, the magistrate of the county, has to give him some face.

Li Gongfu's face was full of red light, and he returned the salute with a smile: "Dian Li, we are happy and happy." ”

"The dog mentioned in the letter that Xu Xian helped him a lot in this children's examination." Li Zong approached Li Gongfu and whispered, "You and I have the same surname, and we both work together in the Yamen, so we will be closer and closer in the future." ”

"Definitely, definitely." Li Gongfu said in surprise, "If the warden needs anything in the future, just give orders." ”

"And call me a warden?" Li Zong pretended to be angry and said, "Call brother!" ”

Li Gongfu said excitedly: "Yes, yes, Brother Wenxuan." ”

Li Zong, as a household warden, is the next patriarch of the Li family, and Li Gongfu is more than ten years old, so letting Li Gongfu call him his brother is indeed promoting Li Gongfu.

At this time, a fast horse galloped from the east road to the east gate and stopped, the rider jumped off the horse, walked quickly into the city gate, rushed to Li Zong and reported: "Report to the young master, the young master and the big team have arrived at Shiqing Bridge, and will soon arrive at the city gate." ”

"Good! Reward! Li Tong said happily.

Immediately after Li Tong, a butler walked out and rewarded the rider who reported the news with a silver ingot.

The rider happily retreated.

Li Tong turned around and shouted to all the family members who greeted the talents behind him: "Everyone, they have arrived at Shiqing Bridge, let us go out of the city together to meet our good son!" ”

"Good!" The families of the Xiucai immediately responded excitedly.

Li Zong turned around and said to Li Gongfu: "Gongfu, let's go out together." ”

"Brother Wenxuan, please first." How dare Li Gongfu walk side by side with Li Zong.

Li Zong smiled: "You really can't be polite to me this time. The head of Hanwen High School, and it is Xiao Sanyuan, is the glory of our Qiantang County, how can the family who greeted him lag behind? Together, together. ”

As he spoke, he took Li Gongfu's hand and walked out of the city gate side by side.

Li Gongfu and Li Zong walked side by side, their faces were full of redness, if it was before, it would be impossible to have this treatment.

After the families of the talents walked out of the city gate, many people from the old folks followed them out of the city gate, and automatically stood on both sides of the road and waited.

"Are the drummers ready?" Li Zong turned around and asked the housekeeper.

The butler immediately said, "The drummers and the money are ready, please rest assured." ”

It turned out that in the family team, carrying baskets of copper coins, Li Gongfu and Li Xu also asked someone to help carry a load of copper coins as happy money. Li Zongshi has a lot of wealth, and he even prepared ten copper coins as happy money.

After waiting for about half a pillar of incense, Xu Xian and the others appeared in people's field of vision, and the people all over the city were in a commotion, stretching their necks and standing on tiptoe to watch.

"Look! Look! The show is back! ”

"Which is the head of the Xu case? Which is the head of the Xu case? ”

……

For a while, there was a lot of voice.

Li Zong's face was full of joy, and he instructed his subordinates: "Drummer, start playing music, and welcome my good son back from high school!" ”

For a time, the sound of drums shook the sky.

Li Gongfu and Li Xu looked at the approaching convoy, their faces were full of excitement and joy, and Li Xu kept wiping tears while being overjoyed.

There was such a huge noise in front of them, Xu Xian, who was sitting in the carriage, couldn't help but lift the curtain to look, only to find that there were dense people gathered in front of the city gate to greet them, which was quite surprising.

The battle was too grand.

When there were still ten zhang away from the city gate, all the carriages stopped, and Xu Xian and the others got out of the carriages.

"Brother Hanwen, please." Eleven Xiucai gathered together, and everyone bowed to Xu Xian in a gesture of invitation.

Xu Xian bowed his hand to everyone in return, and walked in front of him, while the other talents followed Xu Xian in an orderly manner and walked towards the city gate together with a comprehensive reference of the ranking and family background.
