Chapter 366: Both civil and military

Yan Liqiang originally thought that there would be some difficult tests waiting for him on the fourth layer, even if there were poisonous insects and beasts, he would not be surprised, but when he found that there was only one old man on the fourth layer, Yan Liqiang looked at the old man blankly, and rubbed his eyes, but did not react for a long time.

The old man was wearing a white linen robe, his silver-white hair and silver-white beard were tangled together, he felt like the Dumbledore from "Harry Potter", and the old man's side was around, and there were three desks, and the desks were full of stacks of books.

The old man sat cross-legged on a futon, looking at the book in his hand, reading it with relish and devotion, as if he hadn't seen Yan Liqiang appear on the fourth floor at all.

"Ahem......" Yan Liqiang coughed......

After a few seconds, the old man did not react......

"Ahem...... cough ......" Yan Liqiang coughed twice......

After a few seconds, the old man still didn't react, looking down at the book in his hand......

Yan Liqiang finally couldn't help it, took two steps forward, and shouted loudly, "Senior ......"

"Ah......" The old man seemed to be startled, his hand shook, and the book in his hand fell to the ground at once, and then he looked at Yan Liqiang, with a surprised face, and pointed at Yan Liqiang with his finger, "You...... You...... How did you get here......"

"Senior think I shouldn't be here?" asked Yan Liqiang with a smile.

"It's too fast, how can it be so fast, what a lot of effort, it's not a day, why did you come up?"

"Naturally, I came up because I passed all three levels downstairs!"

"It's too fast, it's too fast, it will take at least two or three days for other people to come here, but you're the fastest person I've ever met to get here......"

Yan Liqiang smiled, walked to the old man's desk, and saluted the old man, "I don't know what the seniors call it." ”

The old man's eyes were fixed on Yan Liqiang's face, he looked at it seriously, and then grabbed the unkempt hair on his head, with a thoughtful look on his face, "I can't remember what my name is, I remember, I really want to be surnamed Yun, yes, I am surnamed Yun, what is Yun, oops, no one has called my name for a long time, I have forgotten, I am the worship of the Sword God Sect, and I am a person who loves books, anyway, it doesn't matter what the name is, you just call me Yun Aishu......"

When the old man spoke, Yan Liqiang kept feeling the breath on this old man's body, Yan Liqiang thought at first that this old man would be some hidden master of the Sword God Sect, but he felt it carefully, but found that this old man didn't seem to have the kind of breath and aura that only a master has, which made Yan Liqiang a little surprised in his heart, I don't know if he felt something was wrong or this old man was not a master in the first place, just looking at this old man's appearance, it didn't look like he was pretending, everything was out of sincerity, and he couldn't remember his name so he gave himself one, which felt quite cute......

"I wonder what Senior Yun has to teach here?"

"Teach, oh, I remembered, of course, I'm here, I'm going to test you, you can pass my level, you are qualified to go upstairs, if you can't pass it......" The old man pointed to a bookshelf over there, "There is a cheat book in the tin box at the bottom of that bookshelf, you take that cheat book and leave!"

"What do seniors want to rely on me?"

"Naturally, I have not taken the first floor, the second floor and the third floor!" the old man rolled his eyes and glanced at Yan Liqiang, and suddenly cheered up, with a hint of a smile on his face, " Don't underestimate it, in the past 80 years, as long as someone enters the Sword Cave, I am guarding this pass of the Gate of Death, I don't know how many young men of the Sword God Sect, after entering the Gate of Death, they were finally tested by me here, and there are very few people who can go up to the fifth floor or above, and this level can be on the fourth floor, which is naturally much more difficult than the level on the third floor......"

"Don't worry, seniors, if I can't go up, I won't blame my seniors, only blame myself for not being good at learning!"

"Of course it's your fault, don't you blame me!" the old man snorted, "You're ready, I'll answer the question when you're ready!"

Yan Liqiang took a deep breath, "Please also ask the seniors to ask questions!"

"Okay!" The old man glanced at Yan Liqiang, rolled up his sleeves all of a sudden, took a deep breath, and just when Yan Liqiang was secretly on guard, thinking that the old man was going to put some big move, the old man lowered his head, rummaged through the pile of papers under the desk, and then took out a piece of paper and handed it to Yan Liqiang, "You can get this question right first!"

Yan Liqiang blinked, blinked again, thinking that he had misheard, and only after hearing the old man's urging did he take the paper in the old man's hand.

There was only one sentence written on that piece of paper - the goat went up the mountain, the mountain touched the goat's foot, bleating.

"Senior, is this a couplet for me?"

The old man nodded with a serious face, "Well, this is only the first question, there is a table over there, there is pen and ink on the table, you write your right one on this paper, and then take it over, you can think slowly, three days or two days don't care, this must be right and neat, and the words can't be written ugly, I will count you on this question!"

"This level is the test?" Yan Liqiang couldn't laugh or cry.

"What do you know? Do you think this is easy?" the old man blew his beard, glared at Yan Liqiang, and began to shake his head. The words are big, the sun and the moon are long in the book, you people who practice martial arts, if you don't know the pen and ink style, after all, you are a martial artist, and you will not go far on the road of cultivation in the future, the way of civil and martial arts, one yin and one yang, originally complemented each other, the great achievers of the Silver Continent throughout the ages, all of them are full of scriptures, people who export chapters, many world-famous generation masters, all have their own poems and articles to circulate in the world, if you want to go upstairs, you must pass this pass!"

Listening to the old man's words, Yan Liqiang didn't argue, only said what the predecessor said, and then took the paper, came to the table that the old man pointed to, put the one on the table, thought for a few seconds, and then picked up the pen on the table, poured water himself, studied the ink, and wrote the next couplet on the paper.

Yan Liqiang had practiced Yanti calligraphy hard in his previous life, so of course the words written in this book will not be ugly.

The upper link on the paper is: the goat goes up the mountain, the mountain touches the goat's foot, bleating.

The lower couplet of Yan Liqiang is: Buffalo into the water, flooded buffalo horns, moo.

After writing, when the handwriting was dry, Yan Liqiang took the piece of paper to the old man and handed it over respectfully, "Please take a look at it!"

"...... so soon" The old man picked up the book and read two pages, and found that Yan Liqiang had finished the first exam question he had given, so he couldn't help but put down the book in his hand and took the "exam paper" in Yan Liqiang's hand.

"Good words!" As soon as the old man saw Yan Liqiang's words, he couldn't help but praise them, and after reading Yan Liqiang's next couplet, he nodded, "Not bad, not bad, very neat." ”

"Senior, have you done this question?" asked Yan Liqiang.

"Even if you pass this question, I didn't expect you to have an article at a young age, it's rare, it's rare!" the old man nodded approvingly.

"Senior, can I go up?"

"Haha, where is it so easy, this is just the first question!" the old man said, suddenly came to his senses, put down the book directly, stood up, walked out from between the three desks, came to the place where Yan Liqiang was writing, took out a piece of paper from under the table, put it on the table, just thought for a moment, glanced at Yan Liqiang, and wrote a sentence on the paper one after another-

β€”β€”Sent in this mountain, several acres of barren land, accompanied by poems and books, watching the plough clouds and ploughing rain every day, happy like a fairy;

"You have a look at this sentence...... "After the old man finished speaking, he took the pen to Yan Liqiang.

This question is much more difficult than the previous one, but Yan Liqiang took the pen, thought about it for a while, and put it into writing.

- Forget the machine outside the world, three ancient houses, the morning glow is a friend, Shi Xin makes the wind and the moon, and the old urchin is free;

The old man looked at Yan Liqiang's next link, and the whole person was stunned, and then he stroked his palms and laughed, "Xiaoyou is wonderful, wonderful, and won my heart, I didn't expect that there would be such a wonderful person as Xiaoyou in the Sword God Sect, hahahaha......"
