"Hurry up, second brother, hurry up! Alas, how did you do it. My life...... Oh no, it was Miss Ben who ordered you to be so slow that I wouldn't carry that thing!"

Ten days passed.

It was an ordinary morning, but the sky was white, and it was even a little weird. He Yue, who has been dressed up, looks more and more handsome. Hewan's women's Thai dress is worn on her body, and she has a bit of fair lady's demeanor. She sat by the Silver Creek in the western city of Bogu County, without a single pedestrian around. The sky had just shown daylight, and Silver Creek was remote, so there were no people. He Yue held her little face in one hand and fiddled listlessly with the kite string in the other. The kite in the sky was about to fall weakly, and He Yue showed a dissatisfied look, and looked at the person who was also listless with the kite as if she were coquettish. Zheng Ergou, her "second brother" and also her personal servant, was drooping his angry face with a helpless expression.

"Miss, what's the point of playing with this thing! Not to mention that you're so stupid. Zheng Ergou, who looked quite tired, put the kite he had just picked up, and the kite flew to the other side of the silver stream in Heyue's extremely protesting and pleading gaze, Zheng Ergou had a trace of helplessness on his face, and patted her on the head lightly, "Stupid! I won't let you play for another hundred days! Also, it's been ten days, Miss, what is the first chapter about, you haven't remembered it, right?" "It's obviously that you ran too slowly, how did you put it up!!"

Zheng Ergou said as he gently pulled Heyue's clear black silk twice, as if it was quite fun. He Yue's eyes immediately showed anger, and he smashed his hand into a fist and smashed it into Zheng Ergou's chest, but he didn't care at all, and yawned lazily. Hearing Zheng Ergou ask about his endorsement, his face turned red, and his voice lowered: "Then, that book, it's very weird." There are so many words that I can't read, how can I memorize them so quickly..."

Seeing that Zheng Ergou was still playing with his hair, He Yue felt helpless about his habit, and shouted: "Stop! If you dare to touch my hair again, I'll tell my mother to go!"

It seems that He Yue has used He Zhe to intimidate Zheng Ergou a lot in the past few days, but everything seems to be less effective than that of "shrew" Shen Danhe. Zheng Ergou finally stroked it vigorously, smoothed He Yue's hair with his hands, and by the way, he was addicted to his hands. "Cut, why are you so proficient at memorizing these useless things? The book I gave you is the most useful thing, and no one else can read it if they want to. You, you, you, you, I'm really. Zheng Ergou said with a smile, "Miss He, the villain dares to advise you, if it is noon, if you can't memorize one-third of the content of the first chapter of "Daoyuan", not only this thing in your hand, the rock sugar gourd that you took you to eat last time, and the puppet show you watched a few days ago, just like when you were at the foot of Luofeng Mountain before, you will never want to see them again in the future!"

"You dare!" He Yue felt that his hair was being played with by a lewd hand again, and he couldn't bear Zheng Ergou, and a punch stretched out from behind and hit him on the lower abdomen, "Dad asked you to serve me, do you dare to disobey me?" Also, I will definitely tell my mother." ”

Zheng Ergou laughed, didn't care at all, took out a thick book from his chest, threw it on the ground, and wrote a "Chu" on the front. Then he repeated his old trick and combed her hair fiercely: "Brother, I really dare, hahaha! The sky is high here, the emperor is far away, don't you still have to rely on me, eldest miss? Also, if you can finish what the villain said before noon, tomorrow the villain will take you to a more interesting place! Well, do you want to go? Hehe, how can I tell you now...... Ouch, you dead girl, you dare to beat me? Hurry up and read me a book! Hair is useless when you are studying, so... Ahh

"Humph......"

......

"Liguo, a letter from the capital, what, what do you say?"

"Patriarch, I just received a letter from Grandpa Li today... Lord Liang Kang will make a statement to His Majesty tomorrow morning, Zhenglang and General Pei have completed the expansion of troops by 3,000 people, and our people in the eunuch party have already implemented the business of the Southern Line Heavenly Meteorite a few days ago. Tomorrow morning, the person who reacts most violently, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be the first to pay attention. ”

"Good, good... How about negotiating with the Underworld?"

"Five days ago, His Highness personally went to the Heavenly Prison and had already reached an agreement with the barbarian general Temulun. The Emperor will not send anyone into the capital again. ”

"Wonderful, wonderful... Echoing inside and outside, hiding from the sky and crossing the sea, pointing to the deer as a horse, taking advantage of the momentum to grow itself, it can also win fame and win people's hearts......"

The sound of small discussions reached the burrow by the treasury, and turned into inaudible muttering, disturbing the owner of the room. And when he was on the verge of going crazy, he stopped just in time.

At dusk, it was the tenth day after the General Assembly. According to the practice of Blackwater City, the recruitment of the first batch of officials for the official preparation examination will be announced on the eleventh day after the end of the examination. The entire opening time is divided into three days, and the results of the children's test will be announced on the last day. At this moment, in Qiao's Mansion, workers can be seen carrying all kinds of strange large and small boxes in and out at any time.

And just as the whole Qiao Mansion was making careful preparations for this grand gift-giving event, the situation in the depths of the mansion was very different.

The rows of houses in the depths of the mansion are all connected, and the word "Qiaoku" is set up on the top plaque, which is where the warehouse of Qiaofu is located. Only a simple room on the far left was separated by a thick wall from the rest of the room. There is only one person in the room, moss grows on the stone steps, and the house is small but full of calligraphy, paintings, and calligraphy. In each book, each calligraphy is interspersed with several pots of flowers and plants, among which there are more orchids, which contrast with each other and are just right. It really responds to what an official in the East said: "The moss marks are green, and the grass is green." There is a lot of talk and laughter, and there is no white ding. ”

may be lying on the bed in the corner at this time, Qiao Xuebin, the second son of the Qiao family, also has a deep understanding of this. As soon as I entered the room, it was convenient to paste four big words "What ugly". Look at this Qiao Xuebin again, in this conference exam, the only one in the Qiao family, an emerging family, who went out to gain fame, was him. At this moment, he was holding a book on analyzing the lawyer's melody, lying on the humble bed and studying it intently.

Twelve days ago, Qiao Xuebin participated in the preparation for the general examination. The first round of the official preparation examination is to conduct a written test first, and the second round is a group of ten people to compose poems. Twenty of the fifty participants in the second round will be selected to participate in the third round. In the second round, Qiao Xuebin was assigned to a group that Master Sen Dao personally proposed, and composed poems to evaluate the northern attack on the barbarians ten years ago. Qiao Xuebin didn't expect Master Sen Dao to choose a theme of war to make the question, he didn't know much about the wars between the Underworld and the Qinshan Kingdom, so he was a little deflated at the beginning of the pen. Although Qiao Xuebin focused on composing poems, the Qiao family's background is really shallow and cannot be compared with other families. After a morning of selection, most of the places in the third round have been taken by Gao, Wang, Wu and other scholars. But when the last place was selected, the examiner gave him the same score as Gao Jiagaoli, and he had to choose one of the two. Mr. Jin, a bachelor from Langya City, commented on the merits of each of the two poems, and the analysis was straightforward, and at first glance it sounded completely indistinguishable - the poems of Gao Li were ordinary, quick-witted, and novel in thinking; Qiao Xuebin's poems were gorgeous, vivid, and thoughtful, and it was really difficult to distinguish between the superior and the inferior. But if you look closely at the details of the poem, such as the rhythm, you can clearly see the difference between the two. The sound and rhythm of the high rhythm of the poetry are unique, under the premise of the overall level, the voice is mostly used in the rhythm of the poem, reading as if walking on the winding road of the plug, looking at the sunset in the distance, the ambition and pride are born, and the gentle sound is inserted into the poem without losing the benefit, recovering the passionate mood, and then producing the praise of the Qinshan country. And Qiao Xuebin's work, obviously, did not carve the rhythm, only to ensure the most basic level, the reading is not enough, the whole poem has come to an abrupt end, but the appeal is not as powerful as the work. After this analysis, even Qiao Xuebin himself was ashamed. The last place in the third round of the written test was given to the son of the Gao family, who didn't seem to care at all. Seeing that the list will be unveiled tomorrow, Qiao Xuebin is completely deaf to what is going on outside the window, and is bent on studying the rhythm of this poem thoroughly. In fact, for him, being a big official is really not a big deal. The fame of Bo is at most happy for the family.

Just as the sun was setting and the red glow was dazzling and tumbling in the air, the small window in the humble room could just see all this beauty, but Qiao Xuebin was still lying on the bed and studying seriously, and the flowers and plants in the house were bright and moving. In such a picture of retreat, changes suddenly arise. When the sun gradually dimmed, Qiao Xuebin's lips suddenly trembled violently uncontrollably.

Soon, the shiver reached his hands. After the initial surprise, Qiao Xuebin was surprised calmly. He threw the book in his hand to the ground, staring at his two hands. Soon, a faint and almost invisible white flame wrapped his entire hands, and Qiao Xuebin's face returned to normal. But his eyes immediately showed a tired color, and his face became unusually pale.

He clapped his hands lightly, looked at the book on the ground with a lot of dust, hesitated, slowly got up, walked to a pitcher plant next to the table, inserted two fingers into the soil, and the huge flower pot shook violently several times, as if he could hear the pitcher plant make a **, and after the two fingers full of mud were taken out, there was a blue pearl in it.

Qiao Xuebin walked to the stone table next to the table, patted the stone table lightly, pinched the pearls, and suddenly a lot of things appeared on the table. At first glance, you will definitely be surprised, and you will think that this kid is a charlatan from somewhere, setting up a fortune telling stall - that table of rice paper, talismans, bamboo sticks, and all kinds of things that cannot be named. The main attraction was a small silver fish on the table, with its mouth wide open.

"Bogu County?"

"...... Dutch?"

"Yinxi...!" Qiao Xuebin's hands were once again shrouded in a layer of flames, only this time the flames were brighter, showing a blue-purple color. His hands made all kinds of strange gestures on the silverfish, and the silverfish's big mouth closed one by one, and when the stone table around it was pasted by Qiao Xuebin with his divine sense after the last rune full of runes was pasted by Qiao Xuebin, the silverfish's mouth closed suddenly, and then the light in the room dissipated, as if swallowed by the silverfish. There was a deathly silence in the room, but only a moment later, the afterglow of the setting sun came in again. Qiao Xuebin shook his head, obviously seeing something from the darkness just now. His eyes continued to stare at the empty eyes of the silverfish, and most of the runes on each talisman on the stone table had been erased, turning into charred charcoal. The spiritual fire on Qiao Xuebin's hands never weakened, and his dark face was sweating.

"Dream ?......"

"No, it's, it's a shift in time and space... Where is it, and what time is it......"

The sun had set, there was no moon outside the window, and there was only darkness and a fire that had been extinguished. In the darkness, the silverfish had closed its mouth and did not intend to open it again. Qiao Xuebin fell to the ground, and there was a faint layer of charred black on his ten-finger phalanx. He clung to a pot of gentleman's orchid that he usually cherished, and soon the flowers withered and withered. In his sea of knowledge, countless scenes are being performed together, some from ten years ago, some in an instant, some he knows nothing, and some that make him creepy. He felt a great deal of mental oppression. But what he had been looking for, the place that had appeared like a flint in the darkness just now, could not be found.

"Yinxi! Dream making! Nan Kelu!"

Qiao Xuebin suddenly shouted three times, and unconsciously a white egret appeared in the house out of thin air with a faint white light on its body. Qiao Xuebin found that scene from the chaotic sea of knowledge in an instant, and when he saw this egret, he suddenly realized, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "The egret is above, Qiao Xuebin visits his uncle!"

As soon as the egret's eyes closed, he suddenly turned into a beautiful woman in white, with long hair and waist-length, and his height was actually half a head taller than Qiao Xuebin, with an extraordinary atmosphere. She turned her head and glanced at Qiao Xuebin coldly, and Qiao Xuebin responded with a pale and cramped smile. There is always a layer of white light in the house.

But seeing the egret Daozi turn back, it is even more wonderful. Every part of the face is skillfully blended together, pleasing to the eye but not daring to move a trace of blasphemy. That's mainly because of the powerful coercion of her body, but also because of the lack of two eyes that should have been pearl-like on her face that should have been beautiful.

"Alas... Xuebin. Bai Lu Daozi spoke, his cold voice with a helpless sigh, "You should already know what it is, right? Such mortal affairs should not be interfered with by the people of the fairy realm in my Dao, but you have already disturbed Senior Brother, that is, your master's retreat! I was able to go out of the realm to save your divine consciousness from fire and water at his behest of him." ”

Qiao Xuebin recalled the turbulent waves in the sea of consciousness just now, if it weren't for the power to transmit what he wanted to his eyes, his spiritual sense would have suffered a huge loss. He was terrified and thanked at the same time: "Thank you Uncle for saving your life!"

Bailu Daozi's empty eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of sadness at this time, "Xuebin, your master is one of the three Daozi of the Dao Immortal Realm, and you must remember the last retreat, not long after crossing the soul for you. Since then, you have been cultivated by this seat as if you were a disciple of your own lineage. Moreover, the last time he was in retreat was seven years ago. I'm afraid that he will be disturbed by your divination this time, and he will definitely calculate your fortune again, which will hurt the retreat a lot. ... However, you don't have to worry too much, Senior Brother has great powers, and he is even more measured. Just now, your Heavenly Destiny Palace has also captured those two children. The spiritual power on that boy's body is obviously repulsive to you and me, but when you experience it carefully, you have a sense of blood and origin, which is especially strong in this seat, you should understand what I mean, right?"

Qiao Xuebin frowned and thought about it, his face showed a faint joy, but seeing that Egret Daozi frowned and was worried, he couldn't help but ask strangely: "Could it be that he is from that race? They are coming back again?" Uncle Shi, this is not a good thing!" He looked at Egret Daozi's godless eyes.

Egret Daozi let out a long sigh and said slowly: "Just now, when I went out of the realm, I saw your master's fake body, and he told me to be careful of your new city lord in Blackwater City... I just made a divination, but I couldn't calculate the girl's future fortune. But I already know all about her past. This woman is the righteous daughter of the new city lord Hezhe, you should know her name!"

Qiao Xuebin recalled the last day of the conference exam, and He Yue's appearance suddenly became clear, "She, her name is He Yue." It is the name that He Zhe took from a poem by the old man Sen.... He Yue, on the last day, she said a word to the old man Sen!"

Qiao Xuebin suddenly thought of this and said excitedly.

Bailu Daozi waved his hand, "These seats already know. The words of the chief of the forest road really cannot be easily said by a peasant girl. Let's not mention this for now, Xuebin, do you remember the last sentence you heard just now?"

"Miss, all cultivators go through three processes - that is, refining qi and turning gods, refining gods into voids, and turning voids into reality.... He also mentioned "Dream Beginning"?This is the cultivation method of the Dream Clan!'Nan Ke is drunk in front of the Star Palace, and the bone marrow outside the Heavenly Machine Palace'. Are they fighting Blackwater's idea? Are the Dream Clan going to make a move against these mortals? Or are they going to go to war?"

"Probably not... Maybe it's not just this race that has returned to this continent. Before your retreat, your master proposed a law for the distribution of aura, which is very famous in the fairyland of the Dao. According to the general meaning of what he said, if the Dream Clan monk ignores the heavenly punishment and the five decays and starts a great war against mortals, it will inevitably alarm the spiritual power and distribution of the spiritual veins of heaven and earth, and this damage will cause the dislocation of time and space. It's the same feeling you just had. ”

Qiao Xuebin was shocked and jumped up suddenly: "Blood Clan, Spirit Clan, Hades Clan... Why are they doing that?"

"Me neither..."Egret Daozi suddenly clenched her fists violently, and a secret order of spatial transmission appeared in her hand. Although she couldn't see it, she had words in her mouth. After reading it, his face suddenly turned pale, and the white light in the room instantly dimmed a lot.

"Xuebin... Give, give me the destiny of heaven. ”

Egret Daozi pointed to the silverfish on the table and ordered in a weak but unquestionable tone.

"What's wrong? Uncle Shi, again..."

"Senior brother is going to get out. He has just sent me a secret order, and I will go back at once. He has to prepare for the Ten Heavens Altar Sacrifice, the Realm Lord, the Green Dragon... Bo Daozi also wants to work with his senior brother to divinate the things here......"

"Uncle Shi, is it so serious! How can Master get out of the customs easily? Hurry up and persuade him!" Qiao Xuebin was completely panicked, he didn't expect that such a random divination just now would arouse such a high level of attention from his master.

Bailu Daozi sighed lightly, his godless eyes full of worry, "Alas... It's too late..."As soon as her mind moved, the silverfish destiny flew into her hands. The next moment, the white light in the room dissipated and cleaned, and the darkness engulfed everything again, leaving only a cold echo: "Tonight's matter, never mention it to anyone!"
