Chapter 101: Ning Caichen Dao Chief
Just like when he came, on the way out of Wutai Mountain, Lin Mo did not encounter any monsters. Of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that he flew all the way over, after all, except for the really idle egg pain, no monster will suddenly make a move to stop a sword light in the sky above his head - the little demon doesn't have that ability, and the big demon is busy with big things.
The town they went to was called Jinhua, which matched the story of Lanruo Temple. When Lin Mo made a long run and arrived at the gate of Jinhua City, it was already seven days later. In other words, at this time, he and Ning Caichen and others had been separated for half a month.
"I hope they haven't encountered any monsters in the days I've been gone."
Lin Mo whispered in his heart, and stepped into the city gate.
Jinhua is a big city far away from Hubei City, and people come and go very prosperously. Not to mention the main road, even in the small alley, there are many stalls selling cloth ornaments and even dim sum and food, which makes people forget to leave. Especially during this period of the government examination, students from all over the country rushed to come, which promoted the prosperity of Jinhua.
"It's troublesome, I only know that they are coming here to take the government exam, but I don't know where they are."
Touching his head, Lin Mo couldn't, so he could only ask around. Fortunately, at this time, the government examination was a major event, and everyone knew that a peddler selling pen and ink pointed out where to go for him: "If it is a student from other places, most of them will live in the Jinbang Building." You follow this road all the way, and the third fork is on the right. ”
Jinbanglou is an inn, and it is said that its owner is a scholar who has fallen off the list. Later, after opening this inn, although the three religions and nine streams are received on weekdays. However, every time there is a government examination, it will be specially for students from other places to live. Because its name has a good fortune, and the price is deliberately lowered at this time, so students will live here.
"Well, in the earth world, this is a good businessman, there should be a plaque or something!"
Lin Mo commented as he hurried to the gold list building. But although this inn is not splendid, there are calligraphy and paintings all over the wall, and flowers and plants are placed in pots. The atmosphere of writing and ink is very strong. It's not like an inn where people come and go, but a library where dance and ink are written.
"The owner of the shop really has an idea for this atmosphere, no wonder those students are living here!"
But how to create the atmosphere. The dining room layout in the lobby on the first floor will not change. But see square tables and benches lined up between. There are many students sitting in the middle of the conversation, as if they are already in high school. And there are also students sitting alone in the corner. Holding the wine glass alone, he poured it into his mouth with a sad face.
The government exam has been held three days ago, and everyone has a rough idea of how well they are taking the exam, and it is also appropriate to have this table.
"I just don't know what Ning Caichen will do in the exam. Hmm, if he didn't meet Xiaoqian, would he go straight to high school, and then be proud of officialdom, marry a princess or something, and embark on another peak in life? ”
Thinking nonsense in his heart, Lin Mo walked to the counter in the hall on the first floor.
"Ah, guest officer, do you want to eat or stay? If you eat, we have a lot of famous food, keep it to your satisfaction, but if it is accommodation," the middle-aged man at the counter glanced at Lin Mo and said, "I'm really sorry, we only entertain students these days, you better go to another store." ”
When Lin Mo came out of Wutai Mountain, he gave away the scholarly Confucian clothes on his body and changed into a Taoist robe. Of course, his robe is improved, there is neither a gossip pattern on his body, nor a rune embellishment indicating the sect, plus he does not have a Taoist crown on his head, so anyone who sees it thinks that this is a layman who is a Taoist at home, not a serious Taoist priest, and he will not be a student who is rushing to take the exam anyway.
"I'm looking for someone. A friend of mine came here to catch the exam and wanted to ask if he was staying here. ”
When the man heard this, he laughed and said, "Oh, I see. Tell me his name, I guess it's eighty percent with us. It's not to blow with you, but all the students in this Jinhua realm are rarely not with us! ”
"That's for the best." Lin Mo smiled: "His name is Ning Caichen." ”
The man was reaching for the account book to find it, but when he heard the name, his face suddenly turned strange: "Who are you talking about?" Ning Daochang? ”
Lin Mo was stunned: "I'm talking about Ning Caichen, not Ning Daochang." "This guy doesn't have a problem with his ears, when did I say that the word is long?
Instead, the man threw away the account book in his hand and said directly: "Sure enough, it's Ning Daochang!" ”
Lin Mo blinked, and finally reacted: "Ning Caichen...... Michigan?! ”
"Yes!" The man nodded one after another: "Daoist Ning Caichen!" ”
Lin Mo didn't say a word and rubbed his head. The world is changing too fast, but after half a month's effort, why did Ning Caichen become a Taoist?
Xu saw Lin Mo's surprise, and the man slapped the table and said, "I see that you just came, I don't know what's going on, to be honest, I don't know much." Ning Daochang, uh, Ning Gongzi was invited by the prefect in the morning, calculate the time, it's time to come back at this time, why don't you serve some wine and side dishes, and wait while eating? If you have any words, you will know when you meet with Ning Gongzi! ”
Lin Mo thought that this was the case, so he simply nodded, took out the money, ordered the wine and food at random, and sat at a table, eating and waiting. I'm going to wait for Ning Caichen to come back, and then ask what's going on.
But contrary to his expectations, before the real person came back, he first heard Ning Caichen's name from the wine table next to him.
There were four scholars sitting at this table, and the one was a young man of seven or eight years old, who was called Brother Gu by the others. It seems that this government test is good, very high-spirited, and the other three scholars frequently toast and don't say, even they themselves said, 'I must have me in the list tomorrow', very confident.
Originally, a few people said it, and Lin Mo had the right to relieve his boredom, just listen to it. But he didn't expect that these people were talking and talking, and suddenly such a sentence came.
"Brother Gu, if you are on the list, it is a matter of course, Xiaosheng admires. But if Ning Caichen is on the list, Xiaosheng will not follow! ”
This was a scholar's casual remark, but immediately the other two scholars chimed in: "Yes, yes, that's right." Ru Nan Ning Caichen is also on the list. I'll wait for the first one to disagree! ”
Talking about people behind their backs is an act that a righteous man and a gentleman are ashamed of. But when Brother Gu heard this, not only did he not stop drinking, but he also showed disgust, and said, "Of course, I'm ashamed to be in the company of such demons!" ”
Yes, I just called the Taoist priest over there, and there is a demon here. Lin Mo rolled his eyes, very puzzled: What the hell is wrong with Ning Caichen?
I really couldn't figure it out, Lin Mo simply didn't care about the wine and food in front of him. He got up and walked directly to the scholar's side. He simply sat down and asked, "Everyone, can you explain to me about Ning Caichen?" ”
When the three scholars saw Lin Mo suddenly coming over, they immediately raised their eyebrows: "Who are you?" We don't know you! Why is it so rude? ”
The scholar called Brother Gu didn't speak eagerly. Instead, he looked Lin Mo up and down. Suddenly solemnized a little look.
The practitioner is full of mana. He also has supernatural powers, his experience is too different from that of mortals, and his natural temperament is much better than that of ordinary people. It is Yan Chixia's dissolute and uninhibited knightly dress. When ordinary people see it, they will naturally think that this is a wandering hero, not a little shrimp who lives a mixed life, let alone Lin Mo? From anyone's point of view, Lin Mo doesn't look like an ordinary person, but the kind of righteous and truthful way, and a sense of respect arises from his heart!
Although this Gu brother didn't have a good impression of the Taoist priest, he was also intimidated by Lin Mo's temperament at this time, and said at that time: "Dare to ask this gentleman's name?" ”
"My surname is Lin."
"Oh, that's Brother Lin." The scholar surnamed Gu raised his hand and raised his glass, and said: "It is also fate to meet here, Brother Lin is magnificent, take the initiative to come, if I push three or four times, it will be stingy." Come, let's do this first, and then you and I'll talk about it. ”
Lin Mo was also polite, and simply toasted with him. When the other three scholars saw it, they could only keep their mouths shut, and also drank a cup, and then the scholar surnamed Gu talked about Ning Caichen.
It turned out that at the beginning, Ning Caichen's reputation was not obvious. After all, there are so many students who come to participate in the government examination, and Ning Caichen is not famous at a young age, so naturally he is nothing, except for the same from Echeng, who knows him?
But after the government test, the basis was different. On the afternoon after the government examination, there were rumors that Ning Caichen went to visit the prefect who presided over the government examination, and then encountered some strange things.
That's it, just a gossip or two, and forget it in two days. After all, there have been too many rumors of gods and ghosts in the past few years, and they are nothing. But who would have thought about it, there were rumors immediately that this Ning Caichen, who was at the right time, actually cast a spell at the prefect's house to drink away the demons, which made the prefect greatly admired!
This rumor is a bit outrageous. When the students were doubting the letter, the facts that followed confirmed the matter: for three days in a row, the prefect sent people to Jinbang Tower to ask Ning Caichen to cast a spell and shock the demons!
"Isn't this nonsense!" The scholar surnamed Gu said this, and he was already very angry: "What a big deal the government test is, it is to select materials for the country!" If Ning Caichen has peerless literary talents, or can rule the country and be valued by the prefect, we will definitely not have a second word! But this is because of the surrender of demons and the shock of demons...... It's nonsense! ”
"Hmph, Brother Gu is still a sincere gentleman, but Ning Caichen has real skills and can subdue demons and eliminate demons," At this point, there is nothing to hide, and a scholar said: "But I don't want to, is there someone speculating in the camp, but he is afraid of people's words, so he simply changed his words, and did something in the name of gods and ghosts!" ”
These words were very strict, but the other two scholars nodded one after another, and even the scholar surnamed Gu himself was silent after a slight hesitation, obviously acquiescing to the matter.
They were filled with righteous indignation, but Lin Mo looked strange. Because he felt that as far as he knew Ning Caichen's temperament, he should not be able to do that kind of speculative thing. Perhaps the most implausible rumor is true!
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a commotion at the door, and Lin Mo raised his eyes to see that it was Ning Caichen who had returned to the inn in a burst of noisy words and strange sights.
"Brother Ning!" Lin Mo immediately shouted one by one.
Ning Caichen heard this familiar voice, looked up and saw Lin Mo, and immediately walked over very happily. But when he got closer, his expression changed, and he sighed very bitterly: "Mr. Lin, you have hurt me!" ”
ps: Okay, after I finished writing, I only now have two more words added to one with six thousand words, it's better to put some thought into it, divided into three chapters and two thousand, it's still a beautiful three more...... Ma Dan, I'm going to work again, and the time is so tight (to be continued!)
