Chapter 155: Repaying the Favor

The Beijing Inn is full of scholars who are rushing to take the exam this year, and those who are wealthy can still live in a room, and those who are not very solid can only live in the shop. Although there is a candidate in the shop here in the Zhuangyuan Inn, although he is dressed in shabby clothes, his eyes are clear and extraordinary, and he is a poor student and has extraordinary knowledge. At the beginning, when the candidate first arrived at the inn, the shopkeeper saw that he was only a poor scholar, but he couldn't help but entertain him, so he endured the unhappiness in his heart and placed him in the bunk room in the backyard.

The Beijing Zhuangyuan Inn is the most favored by candidates, not only because of its name, after all, the candidates who live here hope to borrow the good words of the store to go to high school in one fell swoop. Or because the big proprietor of the establishment of the champion inn has set a rule, as long as the candidates who enter the inn during the examination period are not allowed to go out, regardless of poverty, if the inn is full, they need to set up a notice at the end of the street.

So over the years, many poor scholars like to come to the champion inn early to complain, but there are too few high school students in the recent scientific examinations, and gradually the shopkeeper has lost his original enthusiasm for the poor scholars, only to hinder the normal reception of the rules.

This scholar is a Mangcui person, named Su Wanglan, this is the second time he has entered Beijing to catch the exam, and it is one of his wishes to be able to live in the Champion Inn smoothly. The first time he entered Beijing to catch the exam, he was two days late, the champion inn was already full, he had to go to other inns but unfortunately got a cold, and there was no money to hire a doctor, so he had to hold on, and then the delay was too serious, and even the tribute courtyard could not enter. So this time he left for Beijing early and stayed at the Champion Inn.

He only hopes that he can successfully enter the Gongyuan this time, and in one fell swoop to high school, the old mother and sister at home are still waiting for him to return to his hometown. Therefore, after living in the Champion Inn, except for the normal poetry fighting activities among students, he basically stayed in the inn for the rest of the time to study.

Si Xi finally learned to trace, opened her eyes, a dark light flashed and calmed down, Si Xi took off the hairpin on her head, and recited the spell silently, and soon a picture appeared in Si Xi's eyes, and her face became more and more pale, the aura around her suddenly became violent, and the demon beasts were terrified to look at the demon king in the center of the storm and did not dare to move.

Si Xi saw the whole process of the construction of the mud statue of the Mangcui Mountain Taoist Temple to the destruction, at the beginning this Taoist temple had a name, called Shangqing, and this clay statue is the Shangqing Zhenren. There is only one Taoist priest in the Taoist temple, and later he met a couple injured by a demon beast, the wife was seriously injured and died, and the husband stayed and became the apprentice of the Taoist priest. Because the Taoist temple is located in the Mangcui Mountain, there are many monsters around, so it is not famous, except for the people who break in, basically no one finds here, so there is no incense here.

Then time flies, the old Taoist priest has passed away, buried in the back mountain of the Taoist temple, the apprentice is now gray-haired, every two months to go out of the mountain to change some daily necessities, this time back but brought back a little girl about three years old, covered with wounds, he knelt in front of the clay statue of the Qing people and begged the ancestor to take in this little girl, and then the plaque of the Qing Dynasty fell, the apprentice left with tears and kowtowed with the little girl, since then only the apprentice was in front of the Shangqing Palace, and the little girl was gone. However, the laughter of the little girl could always be heard in the Shangqing Palace, so that Sixi had no choice but that the little girl did not leave, but could not enter the hall.

With the passage of time, when the apprentice also passed away, the little girl had grown up, combed her hair and stepped into the hall in a blue Taoist dress, first knelt in front of the clay statue and kowtowed three times, and then cleaned around.

At night, a black shadow came to the clay statue, and when it touched the tribute, it made a sound, and the dryer lady pushed the door in with an oil lamp, and this black shadow was hidden behind the clay statue. After observing the situation in the hall, the dry machine mother was about to retreat, when the clay figure's arm could not withstand the gravity of the black shadow and was suddenly crushed, which made the dry machine mother hurriedly come forward to check.

The black shadow couldn't hide anymore, and directly exposed his body and attacked the dryer with a palm, and the unprepared dryer was spurted out of blood by this palm, and just a few drops fell on the Buddha statue, and the black shadow took the oil and ignited the Taoist temple and disappeared without a trace.

It stands to reason that the picture should be terminated at this point, but no, Si Xi saw the whole process of a baby's birth, growth, aging, and death, and then another person's life, and saw the lives of eight different people, and when it came to the ninth, the picture was frozen in a handsome scholar who was immersed in hard reading.

Si Xi knew in her heart that it was estimated that these people were the reincarnated cadres, so in the end, the scholar was the person she wanted to repay. After the mortal affairs were over, she went to the so-called Shangqing people to throw themselves into his disciples.

Si Xi explained that she had something to leave, and the demon beasts and their respective cultivation shrank into inches and went to the capital. As soon as Si Xi left, several demon beasts glanced at each other, and each went back to their respective territories to cultivate without mentioning it.

In the bustling capital, there are all kinds of small stalls and vendors that make people overwhelmed, and there are shops on both sides of the street to cultivate the true magic weapon, and the business of the pill shop is booming, and there are also people dressed as Taoist priests during the period, and it seems that the people in this mortal world also know the existence of monks and monsters.

Si Xi looked at it for a while and was not interested, there should be a powerful monk in the capital, Si Xi could feel the suppression after the capital, and originally wanted to use his divine sense to find the scholar, but then he thought about it or not to alarm the powerful monk, at most it was just to spend some time searching.

Seeing a study on the side of the road, Si Xi stepped in, bought a good study Sibao and Xiao Er by the way and Xiao Er inquired about where the scholars who entered Beijing to take the exam this year generally lived, the shop Xiao Er thought she was also here to catch the exam, but she came relatively late, so she said all about the situation of the scholars in the capital to take the exam, and also persuaded Si Xi to go to see if the champion inn was full, where there are more people in high school than other inns. After getting the exact news, Si Xi went straight to the Zhuangyuan Inn with the four treasures of the study he had just bought.

As soon as the shopkeeper of the Zhuangyuan Inn saw Sixi enter the door, he hurriedly greeted him, doing their job, nothing else, but his eyesight was good. This look is a person with a furrow in his chest, although he is relatively handsome, but the momentum of the whole person is domineering, so that people dare not look directly.

"Guest officer, please inside, please inside. Do you want to shoot or stay in a hotel? The shopkeeper's personal greeting shocked the shopkeeper, but he was also clever, following the shopkeeper, ready to serve at any time.

"It's better to stay in the hotel." Si Xi said lightly.

"Okay, there is a room on the second floor, and the hot water and meals will be brought to you later." The shopkeeper gave the shopkeeper a look, and the shopkeeper threw the rag on his shoulder, half-bent over and said to Si Xi with one hand: "Distinguished guest here, please upstairs!" ”

After dinner, Si Xi came to the backyard of the inn, where almost all the students were from poor families, and there was not much money around, and they could save some money by living in the shop. Of course, there are also scholars who come late and will stay in the name of the inn.

"Brother Su, even the four heroes participated in today's poetry competition, but you didn't go, that scene is really impressive. Even Lord Wen Han praised the four masters, and I heard that in the Dou Shi Conference, this year's imperial examination has been bet, and there are four masters...... "The man wanted to say something, but was interrupted by a cold voice.

"Okay, thank you Brother Wang for informing me, my knowledge is far inferior to that of the people in the Poetry Fighting Conference, so I have to spend a little more effort, the imperial examination is imminent, has Brother Wang been prepared?" This person almost pointed at other people's noses and said that the exam was about to be, why don't you go to the temporary cramming, but you still have the leisure to care about others.

The man known as Brother Wang smiled, touched his nose and said goodbye awkwardly before leaving. After Si Xi stood by the window and listened to it for a few ears, she pinched a gesture and said a few words silently, and after making sure that the man surnamed Su was the person she was looking for, she pointed at his spiritual platform and left.

Su Wanglan, who was ordered to the spiritual platform, used to feel that there was a barrier when reading, but now he can draw inferences from it at a glance, he was also surprised for a while, after changing a book, he was still a little ecstatic, and his originally clear eyes were gradually contaminated with ambition, but he was soon suppressed, and his eyes were still clear but more firm.

Si Xi's idea of repaying Su Wanglan's kindness is very simple, just help him achieve what he wants, and those books or legendary goblins who repay their kindness are not in her place. Who stipulates that to repay the favor must be a personal promise, in case people are afraid that you are a goblin, there is a saying that if it is not my race, its heart will be different, isn't this the truth? Why bother with a sadistic and abusive trip to repay your kindness.

This Su Wanglan just wants to succeed in the imperial examination, return to his hometown in fine clothes, and fulfill him, how simple. Turning on the light of his spiritual platform was enough for him to shine in the imperial examination, and in order to ensure the success of the result, Si Xi was still ready to wait until the results of the scientific examination were released before leaving.

On the day of the list, the street was very lively, Sixi did not go to watch, but quietly waited for the good news officer, sure enough, all the way to the gong and drum to announce the good news official came to the champion inn, the shopkeeper and the shop Xiao Er and the scholars in the hall were waiting at the door of the inn, seeing the arrival of the good news officer, everyone was very excited, before the good news, the shopkeeper handed a red envelope on behalf of the inn. The annunciation official did not refuse to accept it directly, so he spoke: "Hurry up and invite Master Su Wanglan to come out, congratulations to the champion of high school!" ”

And when Su Wanglan, who was still packing up in the room, got the news, his heart relaxed, and his face was still light. Si Xi nodded after seeing it, he will pretend to be ambitious, hoping that the official queen can pray for the people, and there are countless people around him to congratulate him for a while. She also stepped forward to congratulate, perhaps because she was enlightened by demons, and when she stepped forward, the crowd automatically separated and no one dared to touch her.

She handed over the four treasures of the study that she had bought before, and congratulated her: "Congratulations to high school!" A little care is not a respect. Then he shoved it into Su Wanglan's hand, withdrew from the circle, and turned to leave. And Su Wanglan only had time to see a back before he was distracted by the people around him.
