The story was not complicated, when he was young and vigorous, Shen Yunhe, who was young and vigorous, went to challenge Chu Feixiong, who was already the number one master of Xinguo at that time, but was seriously injured and almost died.

Shen Yunhe's wife, Ah Qin, had just given birth to Shen Xiaoye, in order to find a rare herb that could treat Shen Yunhe's injuries, the Demon Soul Flower (which only grows in the place where demon beasts gather), entered a demon beast domain outside the safe zone (the place where demon beasts gather the most, and the territory of Xinguo is divided into ten domains), and never returned.

Shen Yunhe is not a kind of person who likes to take revenge on others, his strength is not good, he admits it if he loses, and Ah Qin died for him, he also admits it.

domain, slaughtering the entire demon beast domain.

The Demon Beast Domain became the Ghost Domain, and there were no living Demon Beasts anymore, and after another year, most of the corpses of the Demon Beasts were rotten and clean, and the imperial court sent people in, and all that could be seen at that time was the white bones all over the ground, and each skeleton was dismantled into eighteen sections, which showed how deep the resentment in Shen Yunhe's heart was at that time.

After all, slaughtering the Demon Beast Domain with one's own strength is no longer a record that humans should have, otherwise the Demon Beasts would have been completely wiped out by humans a long time ago, and there would be no safe zone.

Chu Feixiong also kept his hand again and again, just defeating Shen Yunhe, but not hurting him or killing him, the gap between the two people is so obvious.

"It turns out that my mother went like this......" Shen Xiaoye sobbed in a low voice, her eyes were red, and tears fell uncontrollably.

The two of them hugged their heads and cried, but they forgot one thing, the sword that Shen Yunhe hid in the martial arts hall, and why he suddenly seemed to have changed his temperament......

The owner of the museum sat on the chair, his eyes tightly closed, as if he was pretending to sleep.

"Pavilion Master!" Chu Jing bowed slightly with the etiquette of leaving the martial arts hall.

Chu Jing really wanted to answer if he didn't want to, the imperial examination was in his own hands, did he have to review all night, and then compete with tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of candidates for posts? Isn't it funny?

"Will you try the imperial examination?" Chu Jing frowned, his voice a little hesitant.

It turned out that Chu Jing was asked to take the martial arts exam, which was still a bit like that.

"Don't tell me your father didn't teach you that. There was a hint of impatience in the pavilion owner's tone.

People are under the roof, Chu Jing has to bow his head, how could he let himself take the Laoshizi exam for some reason? Isn't this deliberately torturing people?

But there's another problem, even if it's martial arts, not everyone can participate casually, the township exam, the guild exam, the palace exam, I don't know which one I want to take first?

may have guessed what Chu Jing was thinking, the hall owner waved his hand and said: "You can go directly to Xinyang City, I have already told the city lord of Tiannan Mansion about the registration, he will ensure that you will participate in the martial arts exam directly, go down and prepare, and leave as soon as possible." ”

The day after the hall owner proposed to Chu Jing, Chu Jing just got up and opened the door, and the hall owner brought an identity certificate, which is the most basic thing for the imperial examination, equivalent to an ID card, to prevent someone from impersonating the exam.

After the hall owner finished speaking, he handed a package to Chu Jing, there were not many things in it, they were all broken silver, silver tickets and the like.

In this way, under the eyes of the hall master, Chu Jing embarked on the journey to Xinyang City to take the imperial examination with a confused face, and he didn't even have time to say hello to Shen Xiaoye.

In fact, traveling alone is very boring and boring, except for the caravan, there are few pedestrians walking on the official roads between cities, and the slow speed of the caravan is not suitable for people like Chu Jing who are in a hurry.

In short, after only a morning of advancement, Chu Jing felt lonely and cold. There are no trains, high-speed trains, planes, or even buses, Chu Jing would rather choose to stay in the rocking chair of the martial arts hall and enjoy the cozy and comfortable afternoon sun.

There is not a large city that is not near a big river, especially in this era of highly underdeveloped civilization, which can support the population of a capital, and there is a big river or river next to Xinyang City.

As Chu Jing expected, there are not only big rivers next to Xinyang City, but also two, one Baihe and one Qinghe, from which the post station can reach Kaiyun City one hundred miles to the east, and go up five hundred miles from the Yunshui River outside Kaiyun City, fork to the left, enter the White River, and continue to go upriver for more than a thousand miles to reach Xinyang City.

After resting for the night, Chu Jing headed towards Kaiyun City.

Chu Jing did not enter the city, but came directly to the port of Kering City.

This is a building ship, fifteen zhang long, six zhang wide, the appearance is like a building, the ship is high and wide, and it is not a problem to carry more than 200 people.

After a while, someone inside really responded: "This is the boat for my son-in-law to go to Xinyang City to catch the exam, don't borrow outsiders, son-in-law should go find someone else." ”

Chu Jing continued to shout loudly: "I am also a candidate who went to Xinyang City to catch the exam, so why don't we do it together." ”

"Are you also going to participate in the imperial examination?" the scholar asked.

"Well said, since you and I are both scholars, I will make a couplet, if you are right, I will invite you to the boat, you see how it is. ”

"It's okay, there is also a literary test for martial arts, you might as well give it a try, it doesn't count if it's not neat. The scholar did not change his mind and continued: "Hear clearly, the upper link is: rivers, lakes and seas, waves and sands, and rough waves. ”

As for why there are couplets in this world? Nonsense, even the imperial examination is available, and there are no couplets for those candidates to take the test.

This Shanglian 'rivers, lakes and seas, waves and sand, rough waves', not only bring a three-point water, but also the waves and sand are still the name of the word, which is quite difficult.

Chu Jing thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Peach, plum, pine and cypress, willow branches, ......"

And then ...... Peach, plum, pine and cypress, willow branches, planting trees. ”

After speaking, the scholar was no longer polite, and returned directly to the boat, and the servant lowered the board and entertained Chu Jing.
