10 Distant Relatives (Ask for Referral Votes)
Ye Fan returned to his old mansion in the south of the city with the great honor of winning the top spot in the martial arts department of the Ten Academies Joint Entrance Examination, as well as the soreness and mental fatigue of his body. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
He didn't care too much about winning the top spot in the martial arts department.
What really excites Ye Fan is the function of "Martial God Performing Martial Arts" in the book "Death", which is really unimaginably strong.
It's just that he found that activating a "Martial God Martial Arts" consumes more spiritual power than he imagined.
And the physical exertion is no less than the mental exertion.
After all, performing a godlike basic martial art, although it was only three moves, required a high degree of mental concentration and muscle concentration, and almost every inch of the muscles in his body was mobilized to burst out with that kind of realm of divine skills.
This is just an entry-level "Basic Three" martial art, and with only one punch, one kick, and one step, all the martial artists and examiners were stunned. ”
"It's just that the consumption is too great. ”
"Wouldn't it be even more terrifying if I used a beginner-level martial art?"
"I have to improve my cultivation as much as possible!"
"Otherwise, it will be impossible to activate martial arts above the primary level and carry out martial arts performances. ”
Ye Fan was so tired that he didn't even want to move a little finger, and he was extremely looking forward to showing his beginner martial arts after his cultivation increased greatly.
He threw himself on the bed and lay down beautifully, resting to recover his exhausted mental and physical strength.
I don't know how many hours later, Ye Fan was sleeping in a daze.
I heard a rough duck male shouting outside the door, "Xiao Fanzi! Xiao Fanzi!
When Ye Fan heard this familiar voice, he was suddenly excited.
He didn't care about sleeping again, so he quickly turned over and ran outside the house.
I saw that outside the house, there was a middle-aged fat man from a rich family wearing silk and satin, holding a little fat man about ten years old, pointing at the old mansion covering an area of one acre, as if he was the owner of the old house.
Their proud expressions were almost the same, apparently a father and son.
Ye Fan's face changed slightly, and he instantly showed a full face of compliment, and said with a smile: "Uncle An Cai! Why are you here, why are you here! I said that you and Brother Hao are coming, and I will prepare some snacks and wine to entertain Uncle An Cai! You came suddenly, I haven't prepared anything here, how embarrassing!"
"Don't call me Uncle An Cai, don't pour me this set of ecstasy soup!"
The middle-aged squire and the fat man waved his hand and said proudly, "Uncle An Cai has taken enough care of you these years, right! Four or five years ago, when did your father and mother die, you were still young, and you had no money to bury your father and mother, and I borrowed the twenty taels of silver from the second coffin, right?"
Three years ago, for the sake of your hard admission to the Nanchen Martial Arts Academy, I lent you another ten taels of silver to fund your studies. Uncle An Cai is interesting enough to you!
Now that you have graduated from the Nanchen Martial Academy, it is time to pay back the money. The notes are all there, even with interest, and in the past four or five years, there have been hundreds of taels of silver. ”
"So much!"
Ye Fan chuckled in his heart, hurriedly surrendered his hand, and said with a smile on his face, "Uncle Ancai, you have some grace time, I will raise the money as soon as possible and return it to you in a few days!"
"Okay, little fanzi! just like you are poor, where did you get the money to pay back, even if you are asked to be a robber, this little arm and leg will not be able to grab a few taels of silver. I think your broken house is estimated to be worth more than 20 taels of silver. I'll be generous, and let you use this house to pay off your debts!"
The middle-aged fat man said disdainfully, "It just so happens that my brother Hao is also at the age of applying for the top ten junior martial arts academies, and I am going to set up a house in this city, so that he can practice martial arts and study with peace of mind." Anyway, after you graduate from Nanchen Martial Academy, you will have to get out, and you won't need this old mansion. ”
He is the landlord of the nearby town, also surnamed Ye, and Ye Fan is a distant relative of the same clan, and has always wanted to buy a house in Luyang City.
When Ye Fan's father and mother died, Ye Ancai borrowed some silver to Ye Fan and set up a note, preparing to swallow Ye Fan's old mansion when Ye Fan couldn't pay back the money.
Later, Ye Fan was admitted to the Nanchen Martial Academy, and maybe one day he would be developed. He immediately changed his mind and borrowed some more money for Ye Fan to study, ready to invest in the long term.
It's a pity that Ye Fan has always been at the bottom of the Nanchen Martial Academy, and he has little future after graduation, and he has no hope of entering a higher mansion, which makes him quite disappointed when he is ready to invest for a long time.
It just so happened that his own son was also in his teens, and he planned to send him to the top ten junior martial arts academies in Luyang City to study, so he remembered that Ye Fan's old mansion was here.
"That's it, Xiao Fanzi, this house now belongs to my father, you poor and sour settlers, get out of here as soon as possible!"
The little fat brother Hao was only ten years old, wearing a small dirty hat, holding a dog's tail grass, rolling his eyes and sticking out his tongue at Ye Fan.
"You!"
Ye Fan's heart suddenly burst into anger.
He's not the poor sour boy right now.
With his current status as the top of the martial arts department of the joint entrance examination of the Ten Academies of Luyang Mansion, of course, he can not dump Uncle An Cai, and even make them unlucky.
But when I thought that Uncle An Cai's coffin was borrowed by Uncle An Cai, I also borrowed Uncle An Cai's tuition for the first year when I entered Nanchen Martial Academy.
Even if Uncle An Cai didn't report any good intentions, for him who was desperate at the time, these two emergency money were also a favor.
He couldn't help but accept it.
As soon as Ye Fan thought of this, he couldn't help but soften again, and said with a smile, "Uncle An Cai, if you are old, you will be given some grace, this house is an old mansion handed down from my ancestors, and it cannot be sold! I will borrow your old silver, and it will be repaid in a few days." ”
You don't want to think about how much money you can earn from hard work a month as a little warrior like you? Three coins or five dollars of silver?
Deduct your food and clothing, and there won't be a few left. You don't plan to raise the hundred taels in thirty or forty years and pay them back, do you?
At that time, it was not only a hundred taels, but thousands of taels of silver. Your children and grandchildren can't pay it off, you say this is a fart?"
Uncle An Cai's face suddenly tensed and he sneered.
Ye Fan's face was red, and he was speechless for a while.
Hundreds of taels of silver, it is indeed a huge pressure for him at the moment, and it really can't be solved in a few days.
He hadn't figured out how to earn the hundred taels of silver.
As the two were talking, at the beginning of the night, there were more lights in the city.
At this moment, a low-key and luxurious carriage consisting of eight divine horses and white horses slowly stopped in front of Ye Fan's old house in the streets and alleys.
"Ye Gongzi, is Ye Gongzi here?"
From the car, a green-clothed girl stepped down and looked towards the door of the old mansion, interrupting Ye Fan and Uncle An Cai.
"Who is this girl looking for?"
Facing this girl who was obviously a big family, Uncle An Cai's face changed, and his originally proud face suddenly converged.
He Ye Ancai is just a rich man in a small town near Luyang City, and those wealthy families in the city, even if they are the stewards and maids of wealthy families, have always looked down on them as local squires.
Uncle An Cai couldn't help but show doubts when he heard the green-clothed girl ring ask about Ye Gongzi, and pointed at Ye Fan, "There is no Ye Gongzi here, only my nephew Xiao Fanzi." ”
The woman in green glanced at the middle-aged fat man who was obviously dressed as a rich man, ignored him, and then looked at Ye Fan.
"This son, you are Ye Fan?"
Seeing the young man in front of her so ordinary, her eyes showed suspicion.
But thinking of some legends about this young man at the top of the martial arts department in the palace, this person is indeed not good-looking, very ordinary.
"I'm Ye Fan!
Ye Fan was stunned for a moment and nodded.
"Sure enough, it's Ye Gongzi, my young lady is invited! Please get in the carriage!"
The woman in green smiled and said.
Ye Fan glanced at Uncle An Cai, the property dispute between him and Uncle An Cai had not yet been resolved.
"Dad, how can such a beautiful sister come to find Xiao Fanzi?!"
Brother Hao, the little fat man, opened his mouth wide in surprise, and the dog tail in the corner of his mouth almost fell off.
Uncle An Cai was turning back from his surprise, raised his hand and gave him a popping chestnut on his head, and scolded, "It's not big or small, Xiao Fanzi is also what you can call, you want to call Brother Fan!"
"Brother Fan!"
Brother Hao was stunned, rubbed his head, and shouted aggrievedly.
"Xiao Fanzi, since there is a young lady who wants to invite you, then you go and get busy first, Uncle Ancai is not in a hurry here!
Uncle An Cai turned his face to Ye Fan, with a smile on his face.
The low-key luxury carriage pulled by eight white horses, even if he is a clumsy country tyrant, he can recognize that this is a standard carriage that can only be ridden by the eight wealthy families in Luyang City. And it must be a figure above the eldest lady or the eldest young master to be eligible to ride a carriage of this grade.
The owner of this kind of family actually sent such a high-standard carriage to invite Ye Fan, which was simply an extremely respectful courtesy.
He, a rich man in a small country town, didn't dare to delay other people's business.
"Okay, Uncle An Cai, I'll tell you about that later. ”
Ye Fan was a little relieved, glanced at the carriage, pondered for a moment, and then followed the woman in green into the luxurious carriage.
When he entered the carriage, he immediately smelled a faint girl's fragrance in the carriage.
Obviously, the real owner of this carriage is indeed a young girl. And she is also the young lady of the eight wealthy families.
The woman in green also got into the carriage and sat down next to Ye Fan, close at hand, looking at Ye Fan from time to time.
Ye Fan's heart flickered, and he sighed in his heart, this green-clothed girl ring has a superior appearance, quite dignified and beautiful, just a girl ring is like this, this wealthy family is really extraordinary.
A coachman drove a horse-drawn carriage to the bustling streets of the city.
"Ye Gongzi, don't you ask which lady invited you? As long as it's the rich lady's carriage, you will be there?"
The woman in green looked at Ye Fan, revealing a hint of contempt, and couldn't help but say, "Hmph, it seems that this year's joint examination of the Ten Academies of Luyang Mansion, the first in the martial arts department, and the rumored genius boy from the poor family is nothing more than that." It's just a person who tends to be inflammatory, climbs the dragon and attaches the phoenix. ”
Ye Fan glanced at her lightly and said:
"The carriage was understated and luxurious, with no distinguishing features inside and out. But this carriage that dares to use this specification, there are only eight wealthy families in the entire Luyang Mansion.
If others use it, it is a transgression. In Luyang Mansion, no other family dares to use a carriage of this specification.
The interior decoration of the car is snow-white and simple, with a girl's light fragrance, the owner is a young girl, and likes plain colors rather than colors. It should be a girl with a calm and clear temperament.。
In the entire Luyang Mansion, only Mu Bing, the daughter of the dean of Mu Fengshan, meets this condition.
But she didn't know me, so she wouldn't look for me if she had nothing to do. Besides, men and women do not kiss, even if she wants to see me, in order to avoid suspicion, she will not use this carriage to pick me up.
I think Dean Mu wanted to find me, but he just used her carriage. Dean Mu is looking for me, I dare not go? This has nothing to do with what you said about tending to the flames and attaching the dragon to the phoenix?"
After Ye Fan finished speaking, he smiled a little self-deprecatingly.
"How do you ~ know!"
The woman in green looked horrified.
It is indeed Dean Mu who wants to send a carriage to pick up Ye Fan, a genius of the martial arts department who shocked the whole city, to go to tonight's night banquet.
But Miss Mu was very curious about this young man who was born in the martial arts department from a poor family, so she took the initiative to propose to the dean that she send her subordinate Yahuan to pick up Ye Fan.
Before leaving, she had already removed all the obvious signs in the carriage according to the instructions of the young lady, wanting to see what kind of person this poor young man who won the top spot for the first time in hundreds of years was.
Ye Fan only glanced at the carriage and guessed what the owner's purpose was, this insight was terrifying.
She didn't dare to say another word.
Ye Fan closed his eyes and rested.
In fact, he didn't speculate that much.
It's just that Yan said to him, according to the practice of Luyang Mansion, after the assessment that day, there will be a celebration banquet in the evening, and the top ten martial arts students of the martial arts department will be entertained.
At this time, a luxury carriage of this specification came to pick him up, and there could be no one else except for the one sent by Dean Mu.
Ye Fan didn't have the heart to think about anything else now.
What he was worried about was that there would be no good banquet, and there would be some accidents at tonight's night banquet.
..
Seeing Ye Fan leave in the luxurious carriage with his own eyes, Uncle An Cai's heart was full of doubts.
"It's weird, wow! I was in the town before, and I heard a martial artist who studied at the Nanchen Martial Arts Academy say that Xiao Fanzi had always been bullied at the bottom of the three years in the Nanchen Martial Academy. ”
"After the martial arts department of the government academy is finished today, he should be out of the Nanchen martial arts academy, and he has no future. Why did something suddenly happen, and there was a young lady from a wealthy family to pick him up?.。 Looking at him like this, he doesn't look like a little white face who can eat with his face?"
With a stomach full of doubts, Uncle An Cai pulled Brother Hao, who looked dazed, and walked in the direction of Luyang Mansion. I want to see how many people Ye Fan has taken the exam.
The biggest thing in Luyang Mansion today is the martial arts exam in the mansion.
Although it was already night, at the gate of the mansion at this time, the streets were still brightly lit, crowded with people, and full of traffic.
Thousands of candidates and parents, and some joined in the fun.
At the gate of the palace, a list of 500 admitted students from the martial arts department was posted.
There are two large and small red lists.
One of them is from the top to the top 10 with bold bold letters on it.
The other one, from the top 11 to the 500th, is much smaller.
Those martial artists, their parents, and relatives who found their names on the list were overjoyed, and they went to the nearby restaurant in groups to set up a banquet, celebrate, and stayed up all night.
And those martial artists and parents who failed to make the list were depressed one by one, and went to a nearby tavern to borrow wine to kill their sorrows and get drunk.
Uncle An Cai squeezed in the crowd, probed his brain, and looked at the second list of 500 small names several times.
As for the big-character red list, he didn't look at it at all.
The top ten of the top ten martial arts academies in the entire Luyang Mansion, fools also know that it is impossible. At the end of the top 500, there may be a little chance.
"Hey, it's strange, there's no name of Xiao Fanzi on it!"
Uncle An Cai scratched his head, and from the moment he was in place, he didn't find Ye Fan's name.
Brother Hao's eyes were bigger than a gong, pointing to the big-character red envelope, and screaming, "Dad, look, Brother Fan, his name is at the top, and he is the most powerful martial arts candidate in Luyang Mansion!"
Uncle An Cai was stunned for a moment, and suddenly turned his head nervously to look at another big-character red list.
Rumble!
The name Ye Fan is impressively ranked first on the red list of big characters.
Uncle An Cai's whole person was like being devoured by thunder, he was stunned, lost his soul, and he couldn't believe it.
"Ye Fan, the first place in the martial arts department?. when did the ancestral tomb of the Ye family smoke up, Xiao Fanzi actually won the first place in the martial arts department of the top ten martial arts academies in Luyang Mansion!"
"Let's go!"
Uncle An Cai suddenly woke up.
He was Tu Ye Fan who could have a little interest, so he funded ten taels of silver for Ye Fan to study.
Unexpectedly, Ye Fan actually broke out and soared into the sky in the joint examination of the Ten Academies.
He hurriedly dragged Brother Hao to the Ye family's old mansion, thinking about what he could do to save the relationship that was almost stiff before.
