Chapter 2 There is a little goblin in the academy
Chongzhou Academy was built on the shore of the lake in the south of Shuzhou City, with more than 100 school houses, white walls and green tiles reflecting each other, tall ancient trees standing between the school buildings, lush and green, with a unique meaning.
Chongzhou Academy, as the largest academy in Shuzhou City, is also one of the best in Jiannan Road. It is said to have a history of 500 years, which is longer than the history of the Dawan Dynasty.
Dawan has been founded for more than 300 years, with 15 provinces and 320 states, and there are more than 40 states in Jiannan Province alone. In the past three hundred years, Chongzhou Academy has emerged a champion, four tanhua, and hundreds of scholars, which can be said to be full of talents, so that Chongzhou Academy has a place among the many academies in Dawan.
Xu Mingyuan stood in front of the gate of the academy, looking up at the imperial plaque given by the emperor of the dynasty, the font was strong, like a dragon, just looking at the words, you can imagine how domineering the person who sat on the throne and pointed out the country.
Xu Mingyuan of Chongzhou Academy did not come often, because his master had a good relationship with Master Zeng, the main courtyard of this academy, and in his master's words: "This Shuzhou City is also where Old Man Zeng can urinate with me." ”
Xu Mingyuan still can't understand how an old gentleman like Zengfuzi, who is also going to be a guest of honor in the Jiedu Embassy's mansion, has a relationship with the master, a sloppy and sloppy old man who likes to cheat and eat and drink.
However, at the top of Namicang Mountain, listening to the two old men's drinking orders full of meat, and the appearance of Master Zeng's drunken eyes and pointing to the east and blowing loudly, Xu Mingyuan was really surprised.
It is said that Zeng Fuzi was in the imperial examination that year, but he was in the flower exploration, and thirty years later, his son was in the flower exploration again, and it became a beautiful conversation at that time. And the plaque of Chongzhou Academy is inscribed by the son of Zeng Fuzi after he was hit by Tanhua.
Xu Mingyuan was forced by his master to practice calligraphy with Zeng Fuzi since he was a child, and every time the two of them drank alcohol, he always taught him to write a few words, although he did not enter Chongzhou Academy, he could be regarded as half of Zeng Fuzi's students.
Zeng Fuzi said several times that he would let Xu Mingyuan enter the academy, but Qing Xuan refused on the grounds that it was better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles, and he could also let Xu Mingyuan travel 10,000 miles to read 10,000 books.
Zeng Fuzi sighed for a while, but later saw the books in the room in the Taoist temple and Xu Mingyuan several times, so he didn't continue to insist.
However, as long as Xu Mingyuan and his master come back, he still likes to come to the academy to walk around, firstly, because he can borrow a few unique books from Zeng Fuzi that are difficult to buy in bookstores, and secondly, there is a grinding goblin in the academy. Great-master's granddaughter is one year younger than Xu Mingyuan, and Xu Mingyuan has been suppressed by her a lot over the years, so every time Xu Mingyuan goes out to learn a few tricks, he always wants to come back to find some ground.
Xu Mingyuan took a deep breath, rubbed his hands vigorously, as if to give himself courage, and whispered to himself: "I learned two tricks this time, but unfortunately I didn't dare to enter the academy with a sword, otherwise I would definitely let that little girl taste my strength." As he spoke, he walked towards the academy.
At this time, there were already people walking towards the academy one after another, and the students of the academy were all wearing blue and white cardigans, with fluttering belts, so they were not chic. And Xu Mingyuan was dressed in a shabby Taoist robe, which looked a little nondescript in comparison, and couldn't help but make people take a few more looks.
Xu Mingyuan smiled at the corner of his mouth, smiling at those different eyes, not feeling embarrassed at all. You must know that in this Shuzhou City, he Xu Mingyuan said that he has the second thickest skin, and I am afraid that his master dares to admit that he is the first.
The skin is still old and thick, this is the second truth that Xu Mingyuan himself practiced after Jiang was still old and spicy.
Xu Mingyuan stepped into the door of the academy with an indifferent expression, but his body was slightly tense, and his eyes wandered around, as if he was looking for something.
"Stupid Mingyuan, look at the sword!" At this moment, a coquettish cry came from the right.
Xu Mingyuan's eyes widened all of a sudden, he didn't need to turn his head at all, and as soon as his right leg was forced, his body was already retreating to the left.
And where he stood before, there stood a girl in a loose blue and white hospital uniform, holding a thumb-thick three-foot thin bamboo in her hand, if he reacted a little later, the thin bamboo would definitely poke him.
This girl is sixteen or seventeen years old, with picturesque eyebrows, a slender figure, and a standard melon seed beauty face, just combing the man's sideburns, and a white hosta obliquely inserted in her hair, which adds a bit of heroism to her pretty face.
"You can jump out so far all of a sudden, stupid Mingyuan, it seems that your light skills that go down the mountain have improved again." The girl looked at Xu Mingyuan and said a little teasingly, the good-looking eyebrows were slightly curved, making the beautiful face even more charming.
Some of the academy students who happened to pass by stopped one after another, and many of the eyes that looked at the girl were full of admiration, and the eyes that looked at Xu Mingyuan were a little playful and unkind.
"Zeng Qingyi, am I very good-looking?" Xu Mingyuan saw that the girl didn't continue to do it immediately, so he also stood up straight and asked with a serious face. Legs tense, ready to retreat at any moment. This girl is Zeng Qingyi, the granddaughter of her great-husband, who has been bullying Xu Mingyuan since she was a child.
Zeng Qingyi also looked at Xu Mingyuan with a serious face, and after a while, he nodded and said, "If you dress up, there are few people in the academy who are more beautiful than you." ”
Although Xu Mingyuan was thick-skinned enough, he couldn't help but blush, and he couldn't say anything for a while when he was ready.
Zeng Qingyi smiled proudly, holding the thin bamboo in his hand as if he was carrying a thin sword, and said eagerly at Xu Mingyuan: "Stupid Mingyuan, this woman has recently learned three swords, do you want to give it a try." ”
"Don't." Xu Mingyuan looked left and right, but he really couldn't find a suitable weapon, and then glanced at the polished fine bamboo in Zeng Qingyi's hand, and replied very simply, so bold that he didn't hesitate.
"It's not up to you." Zeng Qingyi raised her eyebrows, looking at Xu Mingyuan like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, and walked towards Xu Mingyuan as she spoke.
"The gentleman doesn't move his hands, what's the matter you can't sit down and drink, and it's solved by knocking the melon seeds." Xu Mingyuan had a smile on his face, and shook the wine gourd on his waist. Those academy students who were still thinking about watching a good show couldn't help but roll their eyes, and their perception of Xu Mingyuan continued to decline.
"I'm not a gentleman, little girls like to do things." Zeng Qingyi said with an innocent face. The students of the academy have stood on her side with the same hatred.
"Don't come here, I'm going to shout if you come again." Xu Mingyuan took two steps back, and the idea of running away from the door was already rising. You must know that this girl's martial arts are above him, and I don't know which master taught her to practice swords, anyway, what has been staged since she was a child is always Xu Mingyuan's drama drawn by her. Although Xu Mingyuan can learn a few tricks every time he goes out, he is still eaten to death when he comes back, looking at Zeng Qingyi, Xu Mingyuan has already extinguished the little desire to win that arose before.
"You shout, shout to cut your throat, and no one here will help you." Zeng Qingyi smiled innocently, but the words she said made the young scholars who were watching blush.
Xu Mingyuan glanced at everyone, and sure enough, there were almost four words written on their faces that they would not help you, and their faces couldn't help but collapse, looking at Zeng Qingyi who was walking quickly, as soon as he gritted his teeth, he directly opened his mouth and shouted: "Murder your husband!" ”
"Wow! ......" Xu Mingyuan shouted, and the students of the academy who were watching without knowing what was going on were suddenly in an uproar, and some of the students looked at Xu Mingyuan with envy and resentment, and a small number of them were full of admiration. Now it's time to talk in a low voice:
"Is this young Taoist priest really the husband of the little junior sister, no wonder the junior sister rejected Senior Brother Wang's proposal last month, you must know that even Dean Zeng said that Senior Brother Wang has a good chance to enter the imperial examination this year, and maybe he can still enter the top list, how can he lose to him."
"I don't think so, this Taoist priest is a scoundrel, seeing that Senior Sister Zeng is beautiful and taking advantage of her, and now he wants to find a chance to escape. Besides, how can he compare with Senior Brother Wang, they are completely swans and toads. ”
"Anyway, this Taoist priest is not small, no one in the academy dares to provoke the little junior sister, but this Taoist priest's approach is really insulting, if it were me, I would definitely not run." Anyway, those academy students were talking in a low voice, and their faces were absolutely wonderful.
When Zeng Qingyi heard this, a blush also appeared on his face, he gritted his silver teeth, and shouted at Xu Mingyuan with hatred: "Xu Mingyuan, I want to kill you." After speaking, the body was already swept out, and the long sword pointed directly at Xu Mingyuan, and the speed was not much faster than before.
After Xu Mingyuan finished shouting, he immediately turned around and ran away, he heard some of the students' talk, but he didn't expect Zeng Qingyi to be famous in the academy. However, what made Xu Mingyuan dare to be interested was the matter of the prince's proposal, he didn't expect that there would be anyone in this world who would dare to marry such a fierce girl, and he really wanted to get to know him if he had the opportunity. Xu Mingyuan shouted while running: "The lady is angry, the lady is angry...... Since martial arts do not have the upper hand, then he always has to ask for some interest first, Xu Mingyuan doesn't like to do loss-making business.
Zeng Qingyi's light skills were obviously much better than Xu Mingyuan's self-created light skills, but after a few points, he had already chased Xu Mingyuan, and the thin bamboo in his hand stabbed straight towards Xu Mingyuan's back, but when it was about to touch it at the end, it deviated to the left and became withdrawn.
At this moment, Xu Mingyuan's body bent forward strangely into an arc, and at the same time, his right hand was straight, and the knife slashed straight towards the thin bamboo. I only heard "Smack!" With a sound, Xu Mingyuan staggered forward, and the contact between the hand knife and the thin bamboo was only for a moment, and then it was taken back by Xu Mingyuan like lightning, so that the thin bamboo was pumped on his back. Xu Mingyuan felt as if his back had been suddenly burned by a flame, and then a hot pain came.
He couldn't help but be a little glad that the crazy girl had maintained a little sanity, as well as the body shape change he had learned in Qi Huang Palace before, and the hand knife, otherwise it would not have been so simple.
Zeng Qingyi whipped Xu Mingyuan, and still didn't understand his hatred, so he raised the thin bamboo and whipped it towards Xu Mingyuan. Although she was angry, she didn't really think about killing Xu Mingyuan. Xu Mingyuan was cheaper than this time, but there were only the two of them in the past, so she didn't hear it, but saying such things in front of so many people today really made her want to find a crack in the ground to get into.
"Alright, Qingyi, stop messing around." At this moment, a somewhat old and majestic voice came. An old man in a green shirt with frosty white temples stood at the door at some point, and it was exactly what he said.
