When Ye Tian turned around the merchant ship, it was already early morning, the river was full of smoke and misty, the big ship was speeding in the rolling river water, and a round of fiery red sun slowly jumped out of the distant sky.

On the deck, Xia Nan stood quietly, the maid Gu'er was a shoulder's distance behind her, her eyes were bright, her temperament was noble and extraordinary, she was wearing brocade clothes, very chic and graceful.

However, after being reminded by Chun Yuyou, Ye Tian looked over again and saw some traces of women on Xia Nan's body.

"Brother Ye, are you back?I really thank you last night, if it weren't for you, I really wouldn't have been able to deal with that big Luo Toutuo except for detonating the Heavenly Thunder Bead. ”

Seeing Ye Tian falling, Xia Nan smiled and came to Ye Tian's side.

Ye Tian said casually: "This is nothing, I am also at the right time, since I have met it, I will not let anyone in the demon path go wrong." ”

Although he knew that Xia Nan was a woman dressed as a man, Ye Tian did not break it, and still had the same attitude as before, maintaining a distance that was not far away.

"Actually, they want my humane book. This humane book is one of the four great books of Confucianism, and legend has it that it contains mysterious powers, and it was dug up by my father from a ruin twenty years ago. This time, I also plan to return the Book of Humanity to the Confucian Sect as a gift so that I can join the Confucian Sect. ”

Xia Nan said faintly, revealing a trace of confusion in his eyes.

Ye Tian's heart moved, remembering that Qian Yilou had once taken out a book with the words "Heavenly Dao" on the cover, and the power of that Heavenly Dao book was very strong, and he flew away directly with more than a dozen Confucian disciples, which was faster than Ye Tian's imperial sword.

"Can you show me the Book of Humanity?"

Ye Tian was curious, he just asked casually, but he didn't expect Xia Nan to take out a bookcase from his body without thinking about it, and opened it, and there was an ordinary book lying inside, with the word "humanitarian" written on it.

"The four great books of Confucianism, among which the Book of Humanity is the most widely circulated, there are many copies, and the content in them is not unusual. ”

Xia Nan explained to Ye Tian and handed the Book of Humanity to Ye Tian.

Ye Tian took it, it felt a little warm and cool, and opened the first page, the words that caught his eye were ancient, which was an ancient pictograph, Ye Tian felt that his mind was immersed in it, and those words were active, and gradually turned into mountains, plains, cities, and countries, there were market vendors living in the city, there were people hunting and collecting medicine in the mountains, there were acres of paddy fields in the plains, and many farmers were working, a thriving scene.

"Brother Ye......"

It seemed that a moment had passed, and thousands of years had passed, Ye Tian heard someone calling him in his heart, and he suddenly woke up, and his consciousness was also out of the Book of Humanity.

He closed the Book of Humanity, shock welled up in his heart, he took a deep breath, calmed down, and said to Xia Nan: "How long have I been reading it?"

"It's only a few blinks of an eye. ”

Xia Nan smiled, a strange color appeared on his face, and said, "Brother Ye, what did you see in the book?"

"It's hard to describe, I can't put it into words. ”

Ye Tian was a little confused, unable to express it in words, and even the memories of the Humane Book in his mind were constantly fading.

He returned the Book of Humanity to Xia Nan and said calmly: "This book does have mysterious powers, you can study it slowly." ”

Xia Nan shook his head and said, "My father has been studying it for more than twenty years, and he has not found anything abnormal. I've read it many times, but it's just an ordinary text, but you can see something different in it, which shows that the Book of Humanity has a relationship with you, so I'll give it to you. Anyway, I don't plan to keep it, who is it not to give it to?"

Interacting with Ye Tian made Xia Nan feel at ease, from Ye Tian, she couldn't see emotions such as utilitarianism, vanity or jealousy, and she was completely equal to communication, so she was also willing to treat Ye Tian as a friend, and it was nothing to give Ye Tian a book that she couldn't use.

Of course, this doesn't mean that she likes Ye Tian, it's just pure appreciation. As the daughter of the Marquis of Zhennan, how can she easily get involved in the relationship between men and women on weekdays.

"It's a pity to give it away, you can keep it for yourself, I'm just saving you with a gesture, it's enough for you to have this intention. ”

Ye Tian refused, in vain, although the Book of Humanity was magical, making him faintly feel that there was a secret hidden in it, but he still adhered to his principles.

After returning the Book of Humanity to Xia Nan, Ye Tian felt that his state of mind was becoming more and more peaceful, as indifferent as water, and the operation of Zhenyuan was becoming more and more germinating. Although the cultivation has not made an inch, this sublimation of the state of mind makes Ye Tian even more happy.

Xia Nan no longer insisted, and said with a smile: "Confucianism recruits disciples every year, and there are thousands of participants, and only one in a hundred can be selected. Each of the four major academies of Confucianism has a book of heaven, which is the Book of Heaven, the Book of Heaven, the Book of Humanity, and the Book of Heaven. However, except for the Heavenly Dao Heavenly Book that is still in the Heavenly Dao Academy, the other three Heavenly Books have been lost. The reason why I plan to return the Book of Humanity this time is that I hope to join the Datong Academy of Confucianism. ”

Ye Tian was taken aback, only one out of a hundred people would be selected, and the assessment was really difficult. But even so, it shouldn't be difficult for Xia Nan, Xia Nan is now at least a perfect cultivation of the twelfth layer of Qi cultivation, or even the first level of the Illusory Sea Realm, at this age, he can be regarded as a genius wherever he puts it.

"With your strength, the Confucian assessment should be nothing to you. If you can't pass the assessment, then who else can?" Ye Tian said sincerely.

Xia Nan's face showed a touch of arrogance, and he said disdainfully: "You don't understand, the four major academies of Confucianism, each academy, has the inner and outer courtyards, and the disciples in the outer courtyard are familiar with the scriptures and books, and they learn the way to help the world, and they can only practice some kung fu to cultivate the mind." Only by entering the inner courtyard can you learn the real mastery. Moreover, above the inner disciples, there are also true disciples and descendant disciples. I don't have to think about being a disciple, but at the very least, I have to become a true disciple. With my identity, how can I be an ordinary inner disciple?"

Ye Tian understood now that Xia Nan was arrogant and unwilling to be an ordinary disciple, so he prepared a generous gift.

The Book of Humanity is the treasure of the Confucian Datong Academy, Xia Nan sent back such a treasure, and the master of the Datong Academy was overjoyed, at least he would give him the identity of a true disciple.

As for the existence of the descendant disciples, Ye Tian didn't understand. Anyway, that crazy Lu Qingshan promised Ye Tianyan the identity of a disciple, and he should have a very high status.

"You were born in a family of eunuchs, shouldn't you go to the Heavenly Dao Academy? I heard that the Heavenly Dao Academy recruits disciples, and the requirements for origin are very strict. Each of the four major academies has a different philosophy, and there is also the Academy of Rites and Laws, which only admits female disciples. Ye Tian glanced at Xia Nan suspiciously.

Xia Nan's face turned slightly red, and he said embarrassedly: "It turns out that you know everything." ”

Ye Tian said indifferently: "I also met a demon sect woman last night, and she told me. ”

Xia Nan nodded and explained, "There are a few nasty people in the Heavenly Dao Academy, and I won't go." There are too many rules in the Rite Academy, and all of them are a group of women, and I don't like it even more. Although the Academy of Rites and Laws only recruits female disciples, women can still go to other academies, but the focus of what they learn is different. ”

She was just ashamed for a moment, and then regained her composure, and it was her habit to travel in men's clothes, and she didn't mean to hide anything. Now that this relationship has been broken, Ye Tian's attitude towards her seems to be no different, which makes her appreciate Ye Tian a little more.

Ye Tian's background is not bad, and he immediately knew that a person like Xia Nan is beautiful and has a good family background, and there must be many suitors, and he is afraid that his relationship with Xia Nan will cause some trouble.

Although it was not Xia Nan's intention, many times, many things will not be diverted by Xia Nan's will.

Ye Tian was still thinking deeply, and suddenly there were a few eagle cries from overhead, and when he looked up, a huge goshawk was hovering in the sky.

Xia Nan's face changed, became ugly, and said, "Brother Ye, there is someone I hate here, it looks like I have to leave too." I'll tell you about Confucianism again, so that you don't know anything, and you will suffer a loss when the time comes. In Confucianism, in addition to the master and master, the most prestigious are the three saints, the four masters, and the seven sons. The person responsible for recruiting disciples must be one of the Seven Princes, and with your cultivation, you are already about the same as the Seventh Prince. But you must not offend them, otherwise they will casually make a trick in the assessment, and you will not be able to enter the Confucian sect. ”

Ye Tian smiled and nodded, he really didn't know these things, although the old mayor used to be a figure of the same generation as the three saints of Confucianism, he had left Confucianism for decades, and the news had long been out of circulation. As for his father Ye Wen, he just studied in the outer courtyard for a period of time, and after graduation, he directly entered the office, and finally became a university scholar.

It can also be seen from here that the Confucianism is strong, and any person who goes out of the outer courtyard can become a pillar of the imperial court, and it is no wonder that the world is eager for Confucianism, and every year a large number of people want to join Confucianism, even if they are only a disciple of the outer court, their status will be completely different.

The merchant ships were still sailing on the river, but at this time, the sound of horses' hooves sounded from the shore, and a cloud of smoke and dust could be seen rising from the distance.

Soon, a white-robed young man appeared on a tall white horse, and the white-robed white horse set off the young man was extraordinary.

I saw the white horse rushing to the shore like a gust of wind, and then with a slight accumulation of strength, by inertia, it leaped up violently, crossed the river surface of more than ten zhang, and fell to the deck with a bang.

"The horse-made Lu is fast, and the bow is like a thunderbolt. ”

Seeing this scene, a poem popped up involuntarily in Ye Tian's mind.
