Chapter 45: The Beijing Test is imminent
It's no wonder that Yang Chen sometimes can't think about it, the status quo of the Ming Dynasty is like this, Wenzhi occupies the first place in martial arts but falls inferior, coupled with a mess of guard system, the status of martial artists is pressed to death. Yang Chen, who www.biquge.info understood the pen "Fun", simply didn't think about it, and he was happy to be idle in the barracks with his brothers all day long.
In the blink of an eye, the spring river in the south warmed very early, and the spring breeze came warmer and warmer, blowing Yang Chen and his brothers sat on the school field and dozed off vigorously, but after dozing, the brothers under his command looked at Yang Chen's face and giggled and laughed.
Yang Chen is still very depressed, the "revolution" between him and Li Luoxiu has not yet succeeded, and the old couple who are anxious to hold the child can't sit still, and they don't know where to find the "Spring Palace Map" one after another.
But Li Luoxiu, whose martial arts have been practiced to the transformation realm, is not so good to be taken down, and the slightest careless counterattack system will be activated instantaneously like a conditioned reflex, and the stormy waves will directly knock Yang Chen away. It is said that even if the fire of revolution has a spark, it will eventually become a prairie fire, but Yang Chen feels that it is hopeless, and he will eventually fall on this long long march.
Yang Chen has been home many times, and he always has tears in his eyes when he sees his mother and uncle. Yang's mother didn't think so, the child who got married, no, the water spilled by the child who was sold, she was still very conscious, and she never left Yang Chen overnight and always drove him back.
In contrast, the old monk is much more free and easy, either to the female pilgrim to talk about the text and chant the scriptures or to temper Yang Chen, the angry Yang Chen always changes the law to tease him, the old monk is helpless to be teased, and Amitabha Buddha said more times.
Returning home in the evening, Yang Chen came to the door leisurely with the big meat buns sold from the roadside bun shop, and the guards Ding was the two who had bumped into him before. Yang Chen has become good friends with them now, and always brings back something for them whenever he goes home, but most of them are steamed buns, and they both have the urge to vomit when they see Yang Chen.
"Uncle is home, hehe, I'll call the door for you!"
"No, come by yourself, come by yourself."
"Hehe, you're tired of being in the camp today, aren't you? Do you use a small one to go to the porter to rub your shoulders and pinch your legs? ”
"No, come by yourself, come by yourself."
"Oh, the buns I bought for the two of you, you're hungry, let's eat them quickly."
Yang Chen stuffed the buns for them and went straight back to the house, leaving the two of them to look at the buns and retch for a while.
Yang Chen returned to his usual style, always gobbling up his meals and sticking his head directly into the bowl. The mother-in-law looked at Yang Chen with a smile on the side, her eyes were full of joy, this is what people often say that the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law more and more pleasing to the eye, although there is nothing pleasing to the eye on Yang Chen.
Li Luoxiu smiled and carefully gave him the vegetables from the gap between the bowl and Yang Chen's face, and her husband was happy, so she was happy.
The old father-in-law was ignored dismally, and sighed and squinted at Yang Chen angrily during the drink alone, and he must be jealous that Yang Chen's status in the Li family had risen so quickly.
"Alas, ......, after dinner, you and I will talk in the study, and we have important things to discuss." The old father-in-law breathed a sigh of relief and said in a not very happy tone.
"Hmm!" Yang Chen's face and bowl swayed up and down together, which was considered to be an agreement.
When Yang Chen came to the study with a toothpick in his mouth, the old father-in-law was sitting on the chair and sipping tea comfortably, habitually chewing the tea stalk as if the old cow was eating grass, seeing Yang Chen come in and put down the tea bowl and spit the tea stalk to Yang Chen's feet, of course, it was mixed with dissatisfaction and more jealousy.
"Sit!"
"I don't know what the father-in-law has to discuss? Isn't there a happy event? ”
Yang Chen couldn't help but tighten slightly when he saw that his appearance was not good, but he instantly asked indifferently with a hippie smile. Since the revolution with Li Luoxiu did not improve, the anxious old couple went to the battlefield in person, and Yang Chen thought that he would have a brother-in-law or a little soap.
"Hmph, it's a happy event, but let me ask you, you've thought about going on!"
"What continues?"
"Of course, what else can you do in the martial arts test, but you have thought it out clearly, don't be angry."
"Of course, it's absolutely sincere, not angry!"
"Alas......, do you say that it is not good to live a peaceful life and take the civil service exam in the future? How can you go this way, you can't teach it! ”
The old father-in-law was unhappy, but while speaking, he took out the paperwork from his bosom and threw it to Yang Chen, who was sitting at the bottom, Yang Chen didn't know what it was, and he was overjoyed when he saw it, it turned out that this was the notice of the entrance examination in Beijing.
"It's finally here, it's finally here." Yang Chen wanted to cry excitedly, he stood up and kissed the old father-in-law's hairy face directly, and went out without waiting for his father-in-law to react.
The old father-in-law looked at Yang Chen's back with wide eyes and a dull look, and couldn't wake up from the kiss just now.
The examination was held in Beijing, and the examination was held in March, and it was attended by martial artists from all over the country, and now there is still more than a month before the day of the examination, but for Yang Chen, time is running out. With the current traffic conditions, it takes more than half a month to set off from Shaoxing Mansion to Jingshi Kuaima, and you can't stop eating or drinking, and this delay is almost a month.
Next, Li Fu entered the emergency preparation before the college entrance examination, and he was very busy. Yang Chen's eldest baby is idle and tight, visiting relatives and friends everywhere, and not being home all day.
Of course, his mother and uncle were very reluctant, and his mother packed a large bag of things for him, a change of clothes, daily necessities and even snacks and food. Not only that, he always followed Yang Chen to explain the details of his life, and his strong love made Yang Chen reluctant to leave home.
Wang Dahai's spirit was indeed a little sluggish, and he was very uncomfortable when he saw Yang Chen just smiling. When Yang Chen was leaving, Wang Dahai insisted that he take the old horse and go to Beijing with him to take the exam, but he couldn't argue with him, so Yang Chen had to obey his wishes.
"Yang Chen, you must take good care of ......"
"I'll take good care of myself, don't worry!"
"No, I mean you must take good care of my old horse, and don't let it slip afoul!"
“……”
The old monk is still like that, and when he sees wine and meat, he is always closer than Yang Chen. With his gobbling and choking belching, Yang Chen made his intentions clear, I don't know if he was choked or had some understanding, the old monk was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he still ate Haisai.
"No one will come to visit you for a long time, this may be your last meal, eat and eat, eat and get on the road!"
"Poof......
"Don't get excited, I mean I'm so relieved to go on the road to catch the exam!"
Finally swallowed the food in his mouth, the old monk took a sip of wine and suppressed the churning in his stomach and heart.
"Curse me in broad daylight, be careful that the Buddha accepts you as a thief, Amitabha Buddha ......"
"If you want to accept it, you old lewd monk ......"
"Are you sure you're going?"
"To be honest, I didn't have it at all, with my skills, I took care of the early tragic death at the hands of others."
"Then what are you going to do, why don't you come to me every once in a while, and let the teacher give you a touch of your muscles and bones."
"I still have pursuits, who is like you who doesn't know how many young pilgrims have been harmed, these tricks should be left to them."
"Master, can we talk about something else, such as how I can increase my skills, or how about you give me an initiation? Instill your skills in me, rest assured, there will be me after you are depressed, and I will definitely give you a pension and finally wear linen and filial piety to send you to the end. ”
"You little thief, if you have this method, tell me that my skills will be given to you for nothing."
"But being a teacher is really good for you, you come with me."
The old monk stood up and threw out the empty wine jar in his hand, and hit the Buddha statue of a ruined tower impartially, which frightened the old monk to hurry up and chant the scriptures of Amitabha Buddha.
Yang Chen smiled and followed the old monk to a stele, which may be the most complete stele in this courtyard, and the mottled stele can be seen in the vicissitudes of life. I don't know what kind of inscription is carved on it, and the old monk came to change the old prostitute monk's past appearance with a correct attitude.
"Master, the criminals have already realized it, and today they will retrieve the things that were pressed here back then......
"Come, remove the stele." The old monk muttered for a while, pointed to the stone tablet and asked Yang Chen to move away.
Yang Chen didn't doubt him, he only knew that there must be benefits under the stone tablet, "Could it be the secret book that made the entire green forest crazy back then, is it the marrow washing scripture, haha, earned, earned!" ”
"What are you smirking at, hurry up and move the stele!"
"Okay, hehe, the master is really, why didn't you say it earlier if there is a benefit. Oh, you want to exchange the cheats for me to take you to Shaoxing Mansion for a moment of Spring Festival, you are so naughty! ”
"What Spring Festival moment? What cheats? What nonsense are you talking about? ”
"No, what is there? I can't tell if I can't move! ”
Yang Chen, who bent down and was about to move the stone stele, was suddenly deflated and shouted with confidence.
"You little thief, the Buddha doesn't accept you, see I accept you!"
The old monk instantly had his hair open, and his monk's robe moved with the wind, looking like he was cleaning the portal.
"I'll move, I'll move, master, you're too polite, hehe......"
"Amitabha, the old monk has committed the precept of anger again, and he will go to the Buddha to chant in front of him."
“……”
Yang Chen picked up the stele very easily, and then it was still far away very casually, and for a while, I don't know how many flowers and plants were smashed by the sound of ping-pong.
"Little thief, take your life!" The old monk didn't even care about the anger ring, and beat Yang Chen violently while shouting Amitabha.
When the dust settled, Yang Chen stroked the bruises at the corners of his mouth and leaned on a remnant tablet, but the old monk was prostrate in the dust in a large character shape face down, and there were many small birds standing on his back.
After a long time, the old monk "squirmed" on the ground, and the startled birds dispersed in an instant.
"You scoundrel, clear the portal for the teacher sooner or later, uh......"
After resting for a while, Yang Chen ignored the old monk and took out an object wrapped in rags from the bottom of the stele, which was less than a foot and tightly wrapped.
At this time, the old monk still limped in front of him, stretched out his hand and snatched it, and snorted angrily in his mouth, covering the object at his side.
"What is this? It's still mysterious, I knew that I wouldn't waste my efforts, and I beat you up, how unworthy you say! ”
The old monk was unmoved, and at this time he caressed the thing with teary eyes, "Little baby, do you miss me, it's been a long time, hehe......." ”
That virtue is the same as visiting the kiln, which aroused countless goosebumps on Yang Chen's body.
The old monk Wen Cun tore off the rag for a moment and revealed his true face, it turned out to be just a short sword, no, it should be called a dagger, maybe the rag was a little too much, and it covered up the delicacy and fragrance of the dagger.
"Damn, what do I think it is? What's the use of such a gadget with me! ”
If the dagger might be of any use to Yang Chen, the two armies are facing each other, do you want to sacrifice it to take the enemy's head thousands of miles away?
"Hugh be noisy, listen to me. This is a talisman treasure for the teacher when he walked in the green forest, commanding the heroes, who dares not to obey, the self is collected, no, after being rescued, it will be pressed here, it may be of little use to your marching and fighting, but self-defense is always good. ”
"Uh, you also ordered the heroes, you should rely on the heavenly sword!"
Yang Chen reluctantly wanted to take the dagger from the old monk's hand, but the old monk seemed to be reluctant, and Yang Chen didn't get it a few times.
"Love is not uncommon!"
"Give and give, you little thief has benefits, but you don't know what to do!"
The old monk threw Yang Chen and caught it, the dagger was very heavy, and the outer sheath was very quaint, a little too quaint, like iron slag burned in a boiler. Yang Chen grinned and pulled out the dagger, and in an instant, the edge appeared, and Yang Chen couldn't open his eyes under the reflection of the sun.
"Good baby, good baby, hehe...... " Yang Chen instantly became happy, dancing like a monkey getting the Dinghai God Needle.
"Cut, you still don't want it, don't you give it back to me?"
Yang Chen was happy and carefully looked at this dagger, the whole sword body formed a narrow triangle, thin but heavy, engraved with the word seal, with Yang Chen Xiucai's identity at once to recognize these two words, fish teeth!
"What, master, take care, take care of yourself, and leave the apprentice!"
Yang Chen put away the blade and hurriedly slipped away, and the old monk looked at this scumbag speechlessly, smiled at the corner of his mouth, sighed, and sat on the spot and chanted. Yang Chen smiled embarrassedly when he saw this, knelt in front of the old monk and solemnly kowtowed three times.
"Master, don't worry, if I win, I will take you to the capital, let's play the whole hook column, you and I will definitely be able to restore your style back then!"
"Ahem......, get away, Hugh disturbs me to chant, otherwise I will accept you!"
