On the ninth day of the first month of Gangyue in 8622, on the opening day of Langhuan Xianfu, the first school in Furong City, the capital of Western Shu, the division commanders of the Taixue school were giving lectures. Yi Tianxing squinted his eyes at the bottom and hung his head to recuperate. He was only ten years old, thin, fair-skinned, and carrying a white-sheathed sword on his back, which was several lengths to the ground, but he did not feel burdensome. Under his idle appearance, his heart is by no means calm: "Damn, there is no end, every year the same nonsense is said, the turtle is going to die." It wasn't until his math teacher Xuan Tianji came to the stage and said: "Today there are two new students in our school, everyone is welcome!" He glanced at the stage unexpectedly, because Shuzhou is the cultural center of Kyushu, Langhuan Xianfu as the first school in Shuzhou, very popular, if it is not the children of high-ranking officials and wealthy families, they have to pass the strict entrance test to study with a lot of money, so the number of people who come here to study is limited, and now there are two people, and there are no school-age children in the city dignitaries this year, so it is particularly strange. However, Yi Tianxing would never have thought that this day would affect his life.

I saw a brocade child appear on the stage, about ten years old, slightly shorter, with bright eyes, embroidered on the clothes with nineteen golden crows, very conspicuous, Xuan Tianji introduced: "This is Gu Mengya's classmate, nine years old, he is the son of Gu Yan of the Great Pillar Kingdom, and he has just returned to the dynasty with his father, so he has transferred to this school." Yi Tianxing then remembered the Gu Yan Great Pillar Kingdom that had recently returned to Chengdu, he was the only town-side general among the four Great Pillar Kingdoms of the White Elephant Dynasty today, and he had always sat in Ba County, suppressing the barbarian and witch tribes who were in turmoil, and only exterminated the rebels last month. Then a girl walked out of the stage, with a round face, eyes as clear as water, white skin than snow, two big black braids combed behind her head, Yi Tianxing stared at her, and there was an indescribable and unclear feeling in her heart, as if her heart was ripped away, empty, sour, but her eyes were fixed on her body without blinking, and she heard Xuantianji say in a trance: "This is Mu Yuelian's classmate, also nine years old, she just came to Rongcheng from Shenzhou with her parents, and she is a student who passed the entrance exam." Yi Tianxing's heart sank, and he was a little sober, the entrance test of Langhuan Immortal Mansion is not trivial, and now there are no more than five people in the academy who rely on this to enroll, this girl is quite unusual.

After the opening ceremony, because the class was officially held the next day, the students gathered in groups to discuss the two new students, and the most talked about was Mu Yuelian's teacher. Because Shuzhou is located in a barbaric wilderness, advocating martial arts and strength, even the Chinese officials of the dynasty have a martial arts, so the entrance test of Langhuan Xianfu is both civil and martial, and the literary aspect is better, and the martial arts aspect is not even the ordinary masters in the martial arts, so Mu Yuelian's martial arts origin has become the focus.

Yi Tianxing listened for a while, and saw that there was no valuable content, so he went directly to Xuantian Ji. Although Xuantianji is his teacher, he has a deep friendship with his father Yi Lianshan, and he has watched Yi Tianxing's brothers grow up since he was a child, and he loves them very much. Yi Tian walked to the door of Xuantianji's home, "Unfathomable Residence", and shouted loudly: "Uncle Xuan, Tianxing is here." ”

Xuan Tianji greeted the door with a smile and said, "Come in and sit." ”

After the teacher and student sat down, Yi Tianxing asked, "Uncle Xuan, what is the origin of Mu Yuelian?"

Xuantian said: "I already knew that you were going to ask, her parents are masters of the Double Sword Sect, but she should have taught it in another way, such as the Taiqing Secret Record of Xuandu Guan, but I can't get it for sure, so I didn't dare to talk nonsense on the stage just now." ”

Yi Tianxing said: "How does the martial arts of the Double Sword Gate and the Xuandu Temple compare?"

Xuantian said: "The Shuangjian Gate is only proficient in the art of joint fighting, and it has not reached the level of the art, and it is vulnerable to a blow when it encounters a master. You're also ten years old, and this year I'm going to teach you some real skills. ”

Yi Tianxing knew that Xuantianji was strong in martial arts, but he had never taught it, and when he heard this today, he was overjoyed and thanked.

Xuantian said: "Okay, I am close friends with your father, and my little three-legged cat kung fu will be passed on to you sooner or later, but my kung fu is not suitable for children to practice, in fact, if it weren't for your talent and intelligence, and perseverance and diligence, I would like to wait a few more years, your aunt is in the backyard, go and meet her." ”

Yi Tianxing got up and resigned, came to the backyard of the unpredictable house, and saw a middle-aged beautiful woman standing there facing the lotus pond, and heard the sound of "hiss, hiss" from time to time, Yi Tianxing looked intently, only to see that the beautiful woman did not see her movements, and a trace of silver light flew out of her body from time to time, shooting into the pond, Yi Tianxing hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Aunt Hua, what are you practicing?"

The middle-aged beauty is Xuan Tianji's wife Hua Feiyu, who has always advocated the ancient "men practice swords, women practice needles" Said, trying to restore the needle, but the ancient sword practice method still exists, the practice of the needle has long been obliterated, most people have not even heard of it, she has no good teacher, and no helpful friends, reviving the needle is not easy, she was fifteen years old with the flying needle stunt masterpiece in the world, so far everyone still only regards her as a secret weapon master, not the needle master, except for a limited number of people, no one knows that she realized the way of the needle three years ago, although not completed, but has entered the realm of the needle, it is really three thousand years in the needle path in the ancient and modern figures. Hua Feiyu said: "There are too many mosquito eggs in the lotus pond, if you don't get rid of them, there will be mosquitoes everywhere next year." You haven't been here for a long time, why are you free today? I know, I must be inquiring about the little beauty who just arrived. ”

Although Yi Tianxing was used to talking and laughing with the couple, his heartbeat increased when he heard this, and he hurriedly suppressed his heartbeat to stabilize it, and said, "I only came last month." ”

Hua Feiyu said with a smile: "The last time I called you my son-in-law, I passed on the way of your imperial needle, have you thought about it? I thought that the new aunt was shy and didn't dare to come to see my mother-in-law." ”

Yi Tianxing only felt that his face was hot, and he expected that his face was already flushed, and said, "Aunt Hua bullied me again, I won't come here in the future." ”

Hua Feiyu smiled: "Okay, okay, I'll make amends to you." ”

Yi Tianxing said: "No, unless you teach me kung fu." ”

Hua Feiyu said: "Okay, apart from the way of the imperial needle, what do you want to learn?"

Yi Tianxing secretly said to himself: "I have all the knowledge of Aunt Hua's secret weapon techniques, and her light skills are not suitable for men, well, there is." He opened his mouth and said, "You didn't move your hand just now, and the needle flew out, what kind of technique?"

Hua Feiyu scolded with a smile: "The little guy's eyes are really poisonous, this is my newly realized shadowless needle, okay, since I promised you, I will pass it on to you." "The shadowless needle is very complicated, Yi Tianxing practiced with Hua Feiyu, it was already sunset in a flash, Yi Tianxing learned, and hurriedly said goodbye and went home, Yi Tianxing's tutor was very strict, he didn't dare to go home too late. Back at home, Yi Lianshan, Gu Lingshu and his wife and eldest son Yi Guizang were already eating, Yi Tianxing visited his parents and brothers, and explained the reason for his late return, and Yi Lianshan didn't say much. Yi Tianxing practiced the shadowless needle for a while at night before going to bed.

The next day, Yi Tianxing came to the lecture point of the Legalist giant Wei Fei early in the morning. Langhuan Xianfu teaching is peculiar, only set the time, place and which teacher the teacher will attend, the student chooses the teacher by himself, but if the teacher thinks that it is unbearable, he can also refuse the student to attend his class, like Wei Fei only teaches the children of the eunuch and the students who have passed the entrance test, he is not inclined to be inflammatory, but he has always advocated emphasizing agriculture over business, and misleading the country with Confucianism, Mo, and chivalry, so he does not teach his knowledge. Although Langhuan Xianfu chooses teachers loosely, after students choose teachers, they are not easy to change, one is greedy and impermanent, and the other is to change teachers frequently, I am afraid that no teacher will teach this person again. Yi Tianxing studied law every ten mornings. Yi Tianxing was usually the first to arrive, but today, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Gu Mengya sitting there. Yi Tianxing's first impression of Gu Mengya was very good, and now he feels more in love, but he doesn't know how to make friends. Soon Wei Fei came to class, and an hour later, everyone took a break for a pillar of incense as usual before classing. Yi Tianxing saw Gu Mengya leaning on the railing alone and looking at the school in a daze, so he went to talk: "Hey, hello." My name is Yi Tianxing, can I make a friend?"

Gu Mengya smiled: "Of course you can." ”

Yi Tianxing said: "In my ten years of life, I have never had friends, you are my first friend. ”

Gu Mengya asked in surprise, "Why don't you have any friends?"

Yi Tianxing said: "Although Shuzhou does not attach as much importance to the family as Shenzhou, but the official eunuchs collude with each other, Chinese and foreign are the same, my family has been a hero for generations, how can I mess with them, there are a few okay, and it is not easy to deal with." ”

Gu Mengya said: "I am also from an official eunuch." ”

Yi Tianxing said: "You have been in Ba County for a long time, and you have not been affected by the gentlemen in the capital, and it won't be long before you understand what I mean." Come to my house for dinner at noon, and we'll have a good chat. I'll go and get rid of it first. ”

Gu Mengya asked, "Okay, but can you tell me that you are from the Ranger Family, how can Elder Wei teach you?"

Yi Tianxing said as he walked: "I passed the entrance test, Wei Lao has always believed that people with outstanding intelligence will recognize law, and those who pass the entrance test must be intelligent and intelligent, but it is expected that there will be people like me who are indiscriminate." ”

When Yi Tianxing returned from his hands, he saw Gu Mengya fighting with people with one as seven. He asked the classmates who were watching the excitement next to him what was going on, and the man replied: "Liu Biao and his gang came to woo Gu Mengya, but Gu Mengya refused, so they wanted to teach Gu Mengya a lesson." ”

Yi Tianxing was furious, he didn't speak, he rushed out and punched him, hitting the waist of one of the people besieging Gu Mengya, who was immediately knocked out and lying on the ground. Liu Biao and his gang were startled and jumped away. Yi Tianxing looked at them coldly and didn't say a word.

Liu Biao said angrily: "Yi Lao Er, you are looking for death." ”

Yi Tianxing sneered: "Just rely on you idiots, usually I don't bother to pay attention to you, dare to touch my friends, don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite." ”

Gu Mengya said: "I'll do it alone, you help me watch the battle." ”

Yi Tianxing said: "No, my hands are itchy, half of the family." ”

Gu Mengya said: "Okay!"

Without waiting for Liu Biao to open his mouth, the two rushed forward. In Liu Biao's group, only Liu Biao and his cousin Liu Bao had some skills, and after a while, only Yi Tianxing and Liu Biao, Gu Mengya and Liu Bao were left on the field to fight, and the remaining five people were lying on the ground, tossing and turning, and they couldn't get up.

Liu Baowu has a short stature, known for his small kung fu, but Gu Mengya's body is ethereal, like a shadow, he felt very difficult when he landed, and the more he hit, the more timid he became, and shouted: "Brother Biao, come quickly!"

Over there, Liu Biao is difficult to protect himself, he is proud of brute strength, who knows that and Yi Tianxing's two palms touched, such as touching the iron stone, the pain was unbearable, he heard his brother calling for help, brute hair, and used his father's forbidden use of the bull gas, from the throat let out a strange cry like a bull, both palms to Yi Tianxing pushed over, Yi Tianxing to the right side of the body, the left arm raised, waiting for Liu Biao's palms to pass, the left arm slammed down, Liu Biao's palms clamped, the right palm split on Liu Biao's left shoulder, and then let go of Liu Biao, retreated aside, and never looked at Liu Biao again. Liu Biao let out a scream like a pig, covering his left shoulder with his right hand, not daring to go up again.

Over there, Gu Mengya saw Yi Tianxing's victory, and couldn't help but be competitive, his eyes were red, and his arm conjured up nine arm shadows, hitting Liu Bao, Liu Bao couldn't distinguish between reality and fiction, and couldn't dodge, so he had to protect his head, his body rolled into a ball, and popped back, this fox channeling technique is his family heirloom self-defense and life-saving stunt, he has never used it, but it is still a little slower, Gu Mengya's arm shadow is clearly printed on Liu Bao's buttocks, Liu Bao only felt that his buttocks were cold, and then there was a hot pain, and he couldn't stand anymore, lying on the ground. I heard the sound of laughter in my ears, and when I looked back, a palm-shaped hole appeared in my pants, and my red and swollen buttocks were exposed, so I hurriedly covered it with my hands, and beckoned Liu Biao to help him up, and the two brothers ignored the five people on the ground, supported each other, pressed their shoulders, stroked their buttocks, and limped away, and said to Yi and Gu: "You will regret it!" and caused a burst of laughter, before hating and leaving.

Yi Tianxing smiled and watched them go away, before turning his head to Gu Mengya and saying, "Let's go, go to class." ”

At noon that day, after having lunch at Yi's house, Yi Tianxing and Gu Mengya walked together and went to class.

On the way, Gu Mengya said: "Introduce me to the teachers at the school, I haven't decided on the afternoon class yet." ”

Yi Tianxing said: "You don't even know about the teachers at school, do you?"

Gu Mengya said: "I only came here the day before yesterday, my father has not been back for fifteen years, and he is not familiar with this place at all, Wei Lao became famous before my father left Rong, so I chose him." ”

Yi Tianxing said: "Okay, then I'll introduce it to you." He is one of the three masters of Tianjimen, proficient in innate easy numbers, advocating the view that 'everything is numbered', and has traveled all over the world, and is very knowledgeable; medical class, medicine king Gu Shenzijian, Shennongmen Yuan Caiwei, witch doctor Ghost Xinzi are all famous doctors in the world, but Ghost Xinzi is a snob and is not worthy of being a teacher; Poison class, Hundred Poison Gate Tian Poison Zi, Southern Poison Sect Zhang Yan, Wu Sheng of the Five Poisons Sect is a master of poison, especially the Heavenly Poison Son, this person is addicted to drugs, unscrupulous means for the sake of poison, with the respect of the head of the Central Plains faction, he abandoned the sect and left, and asked the Southern and Northern Poison Sects, and the Mu Xishu Wu clan is good at poison and Gu, and came to study thousands of miles away, in today's world, no one can beat the right with poison; Confucianism takes Zhen Kuang as the leader of Confucianism in Western Shu, but this person does not eat the ancients, Bai Haoran is also good at Confucianism, but he is not so annoying, and he also teaches students Haoran righteousness; Ink learning should find Mo Jian; Skills, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, animal taming, flower planting, industrial and commercial agriculture, organ fire yao and other skills each teacher has only one, most only have one skill, but there are also a few people with strong martial arts, such as the piano master Gu Se, the female worker teacher Hua Feiyu, the sword casting teacher grinding the mirror old man, the organ teacher Moshi, The art of war and martial arts classes are fixed at the eighth day of every ten years, and the three emperors of the Great Sima Shuyuan are successfully selected from the army to teach, and they cannot choose teachers, nor can they be selected like other classes. You can follow me to study with Uncle Xuan in the afternoon. ”

Gu Mengya said: "There is a precedence in admission, how to teach in the same class?"

Yi Tianxing said: "Teacher, preach, teach, and solve doubts." In Langhuan Xianfu, every teacher will provide students with books, and if they don't understand it, they will ask in class, and the teacher will answer the questions, and the other students will also benefit, don't you know? No wonder you didn't have a question in the morning, I thought you would. ”

Gu Mengya said: "How do I know that my original teachers were taught according to school age. ”

Yi Tianxing said: "Then will you go to academic mathematics in the afternoon?"

Gu Mengya said: "Okay, I'll go." ”

Yi Tianxing said: "Have you thought about other teachers?"

Gu Mengya said: "I have thought about it, but the medical skills have not yet been decided." Do you study medicine?"

Yi Tianxing said: "I studied medicine from Shen Lao. ”

Gu Mengya said: "Then I'll learn the medical skills from Teacher Yuan Caiwei, and then we can learn from each other, then we can have the best of both worlds." ”

Yi Tianxing said: "Okay." Oh, by the way, I see that you are good at pure yang qigong, and it is better to learn the Tao or learn from Chiyangzi. ”

Gu Mengya said: "It makes sense. As he spoke, he unconsciously arrived at Xuantianji's classroom.

Not long after the two sat down, they saw Mu Yuelian walk into the classroom, Yi Tianxing's heart couldn't help but jump, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to look at her again, and just chatted with Gu Mengya without squinting. After a while, Xuantianji came to the classroom. When everyone arrived, he began his lesson. Xuantian Ji said: "There are two new students here today, so I will explain, I will talk about some anecdotes that increase my knowledge in the first half of the class, and some of you may have heard the knowledge, and if you don't want to listen, you can read the book by yourself, and ask questions in the second half of the class." Today I will talk about the development and current situation of civilization, and I will talk in detail about the number of techniques. Then Xuantian Ji began to attend class.

Between classes, Gu Mengya leaned on the railing and said to Yi Tianxing: "Master Xuan is very knowledgeable. ”

Yi Tianxing said: "Then it goes without saying, otherwise how could the top ten students in Langhuan Immortal Mansion choose him as their teacher, do you think that the innate easy number is very fun? Now more than half of the twelve students in the class don't understand this, they are here to listen to Uncle Xuan's lecture on history and exotic customs, so as to broaden their knowledge." ”

Gu Mengya said: "Those ten students are the top among the students of Langhuan Immortal Mansion?"

Yi Tianxing said: "My brother is easy to return to Tibet, his personality is calm, he is only two years older than me, the family legend of the three Yi white jade scriptures has been thirty percent of the fire, proficient in music and palm techniques, and the internal strength is strong; The voice is like thunder, on the one hand, it means that she has obtained the true legend of red thunder, which is quite powerful, she is very famous in Rongcheng; the one in black is called Xuan Yu'e, the daughter of Uncle Xuan, and has been passed on by his mother Hua Feiyu, known as the divine needle, only eight years old, and Tang Qingyao, who is known as the goddess prodigy of the Xichuan Tang Sect, a family of hidden weapons, has tied with the secret weapon family Tang Qingyao, who is known as the goddess prodigy. Among the two people sitting in the classroom, the person with blue eyes and one red eyes is the son of the second emperor's uncle Yuan Chengyi, Yin Yang Pupil Yuan Shisheng, who is thirteen years old, born with extraordinary talents, and defeated the Ouchi guards at the age of ten, many people think that he is the first master of Xianfu; 。 The two Tsing Yi boys standing at the door, both are ten years old, the high name is Yi Fenghan, is the son of Yichang of Weizhou Qianhu, his father is the hero of the defeat of the Yu State in the Houyi Kingdom, because of the high merit of the Lord and was forced to here, good at swordsmanship and Xuanyin return to the Yuanjin; Mu Yuelian, who was standing there reading a book, have you seen it, Uncle Xuan said that she studied the Taiqing secret record of Xuandu Guan, and she entered the school through the entrance test, which is amazing. Speaking of Mu Yuelian, Yi Tianxing's heart tightened for no reason, Yi Tianxing's heart was worried, and he felt that his voice trembled slightly, for fear of being detected by Gu Mengya, so he stopped talking.

Gu Mengya said: "What about the other two?"

Yi Tianxing adjusted his breathing and said lightly: "You, me." ”

Gu Mengya smiled slightly and said, "You are exalting me too much." ”

Yi Tianxing returned to his normal state and said: "Don't be presumptuous, the person you injured this morning is called Liu Bao, the son of Liu Yi of the Great Pillar Kingdom, in the Langhuan Immortal Mansion, Xiang is famous for his martial arts, and he can be a blow under you." ”

Gu Mengya said: "There, I also did my best, not as easy as you won." ”

Yi Tianxing said with a smile: "Liu Biao's kid is good at winning with strength, and my brother is also proficient in this way, but he is much more powerful than him, we have fought since we were children, so I have a special advantage in dealing with this kind of person." ”

Gu Mengya said: "How many people in the Langhuan Immortal Mansion have passed the entrance test and entered the school?

Yi Tianxing said: "My brother, me, Xuan Yu'e, Yan Jiutian, Yi Fenghan and Mu Yuelian. I got through the trick and it's not worth mentioning, mainly because the tuition is too expensive, so I took the risk in order not to pay the tuition. The rest of the people are not as good as me, and they must all have extraordinary skills. ”

Gu Mengya said: "You are too modest, but the tuition fee is not much, only five hundred taels of silver a year." ”

Yi Tianxing said: "you, you are the son of a first-class master in your country, and if we want to pay money, it will be five thousand taels of gold a year, otherwise this school would have been crowded out, and it will only be about a hundred people now." ”

Gu Mengya was surprised: "So expensive!" As he spoke, two teenagers hurriedly passed by and glared at the two of them. Gu Mengya was puzzled: "Who are they?"

Yi Tianxing said: "The two people you said in the past, one is Xia Yuying's brother Xia Yujiao, and the other is Wan Qiu, the son of Wan Gui, the richest man in Rongcheng, they are inseparable from Liu Biao, the son of Liu Zhong of the Great Pillar Kingdom, and Liu Bao, the son of Liu Yi of the Great Pillar Kingdom, who were injured by us in the morning, and they are naturally hostile to us. These four people are rampant, known as the four beasts of Rongcheng, but when it comes to martial arts, in the Langhuan Immortal Mansion, except for the ten of us, they have the highest martial arts. Okay, it's almost time, go to class. I heard that this is your birthday, I will take you to a good place to celebrate, and I will wait for you in Baifeng Yuan on the ninth day. ”

On the ninth day of the morning, at the beginning of the morning, Baifeng Plain in the northern suburbs of Furong City, a piece of red - and said: "The friendship between people is valuable, what do you want to do with those red tapes." From today on, the three of us are good brothers who share joys and sorrows, live and die together, as evidenced by heaven and earth, and by the sun and the moon. ”

Yi Tianxing smiled: "It's that I'm too pedantic." At the moment, the three of them reported their birthdays and set the order of the eldest and youngest, the three of them were the same age, Yi Tianxing was the largest by month, and Gu Mengya was the smallest.

Although the three of them knew that it was not suitable to get drunk, but after all, they were young, and they liked their best friends, and gradually got carried away, the moon Jinglin was sweet in the mouth, and the aftertaste was fragrant, unlike ordinary spirits, and the three of them drank two bottles of Yuejing Lin You, and when the wine strength came up, the three of them couldn't support it, and they were drunk and lying on the stone, not sober. When Yi Tianxing woke up and opened his eyes, Yi Fenghan and Gu Mengya were still lying peacefully beside him, but the time was already the moon hanging in the sky, the autumn breeze was blowing, and there were bursts of the fragrance of Jinwei grass, and the maple shadow in the distance was swaying, adding a little more secluded and mysterious than daylight. He raised his head and closed his eyes, feeling the blessing given by heaven and earth, his heart was full of joy, beautiful scenery, and the company of close friends, it was really a joy in life, and how to explain to his parents tomorrow had already been thrown out of the clouds.
