Chapter 22 [Huang Tingjing and Liu Gongzi]

Yuan Lai flipped through a few of these so-called "references" and couldn't help but admire them, even the titles of the top few volumes already made him look at them breathtakingly.

"Yonghe 12th Northern Sect Primary Election Clearance Cheats", "Northern Sect's Latest Exam Questions!", "Nine Sets of Papers for the Northern Sect Re-examination", "Great Confucianism Predicts the New Standard for the Northern Sect Recruitment Examination in the Next Three Years", "Five-year Primary Election and Three-year Re-examination"...... Wait, wait, wait, admiration, but also a little helpless, think about how many years I have said goodbye to school, but even if I escape to this other world, I still can't get rid of the entanglement of these things.

"I didn't expect so much. Yuan Lai sighed.

"That's more?" The housekeeper next to him who helped clean up smiled and said: "This has been personally selected by the master, otherwise if they all move over, I am afraid that one more carriage will be added, and the young master does not know, this cultivation book is actually not much, compared to the best books on the imperial examination, it is really a small thing." ”

Yuan came to see his father, and sighed in his heart, how many Yuan Shoucheng have you fattened up these candidates?

......

......

The next morning, when the east did not know how many rays of sunlight shone on Shen Cheng, the newly appointed groom waved the whip in his hand with great vigour, and the whip made a crisp sound in the air.

"Drive!"

The sturdy horses started to move, and the wheels grumbled against the stone pavement.

Yuan Lai waved his hand to Yuan Shoucheng from the back window of the carriage, then turned around and lowered the curtain to look at the wide carriage, with a hint of freshness in his eyes.

"This is going to Beijing, and the efficiency is really fast. He smiled, opened the curtain of the carriage door, and saw passers-by pointing at this side in the distance.

It's just a pity that the distance is too far to hear what they say. After thinking about it, he asked his groom, "The people outside seem to be looking at me?"

The newly appointed groom is a veteran, skilled in driving, Yuan Shoucheng dug it from other firms at a high price, and when he heard the young master of the owner ask him, he immediately smiled and said with a mouthful of snow-white big teeth: "It's far away, we can't hear it clearly, but eighty percent is to see the excitement, every time there is a convoy by, someone watches, it has nothing to do with us, the young master doesn't have to worry." ”

"Is that really the case?" Yuan Lai looked suspicious, always feeling that the words in this old-fashioned mouth may not be true.

"Isn't that right?" said the groom, smiling heartily, the smile of the thief of simplicity and innocence.

Yuan Lai sighed, although he still felt a little strange in his heart, he didn't say anything anymore, and lay in the comfortable carriage with his eyes closed.

As for the distant sounds of pointing and talking, let it disappear under the clattering hooves!

"That's the carriage of that fool of the Yuan family?"

"What fool? They're geniuses now! Even Master Wang praised him for his poetic talent!"

"Where is he going?"

"I heard that I was going to Beijing to take the entrance examination of the Northern Sect. ”

The other shook his head and said, "No, I heard that he was going to marry his daughter-in-law." ”

"Who to marry?, a girl from the capital?" everyone wondered.

"Hehe, let me tell you, I heard that he is going to marry the daughter of Shi Shangshu of the dynasty!"

"Real Fake ......"

......

......

In fact, no matter whether those irrelevant people are talking about Yuan Lai's affairs or not, he doesn't care much, some people may think that Yuan Lai is far away or even more serious and uprooted, but for Yuan Lai of the party, in addition to having his own father to worry about, there is really no worthwhile thoughts and reluctance in Shen Cheng.

Oh, maybe there is still the teahouse called Xianju that he still remembers, because he always feels a little sorry for the charm of the proprietress who still exists, no, Liu Wen, who was about to settle down in Shencheng, has to take care of himself and return to the capital, which makes the separation of the two places really not authentic.

It is better to demolish ten temples than to break a twilight love.

Anyway, that's how Yuan Lai feels, hey, it's always a pity.

......

......

Out of Shencheng is the boundless fields, the convoy leisurely along the official road to the capital, occasionally staggered on both sides of the carriage and horses, but most of the time accompanied by quiet bumps.

I don't know if it's because Yuan Shoucheng's carriage is of good quality or because of his sophisticated driving skills, in short, Yuan Lai feels very comfortable and not swaying when he lies in the wide carriage, and there is a wind blowing from the fields and mountains through the door curtain, which makes Yuan Lai a little sleepy.

I don't know when the sky began to condense clouds, and the wind also brought moist moisture, when this hearty summer rain sprinkled all over the mountains, Yuan Lai fell comfortably in the tranquility brought by the rain.

When he woke up, the rain had almost stopped, leaving only the rain drifting like mist. Yuan Lai, who was full of energy, stretched comfortably, and then took out the "Huang Ting Jing" from his arms.

"Practice, practice, what is it like......

He whispered, turning the first page of the book.

It's been a long time to read.

I don't know when the rain between heaven and earth completely dispersed, and the orange-red sunset was revealed on the horizon, gilding the mountain peaks and the carriage with a layer of golden yellow, which was extremely bright and clean.

Yuan Lai closed the booklet, his eyes were full of energy.

After he finished reading this Huang Ting Sutra, he faintly understood what cultivation was.

But that feeling was still very faint, like a touch of emotion in his heart, and he vaguely knew that he should read this book again, twice, three times, or a hundred times.

As long as he reads it, he will always really grasp that feeling, and then he can easily step into that mysterious world of cultivation.

......

"Young master, get out of the car. The groom shouted, and the convoy had stopped.

Yuan Lai got out of the car, got used to the difference between the light and darkness in the carriage and the world outside, and then he saw an inn in front of him, and also saw Liu Wen coming over.

"Okay, I'll stay here tonight, young master, are you tired? Liu Wen said with a smile.

"Good. Yuan Lai nodded.

The inn is very lively, it is next to the official road, many merchants and pedestrians come and go here, at this time there are already a lot of carriages lined up next to the inn, in the evening is also the time to eat, the curling green smoke rises from the back of the inn, and when it reaches the height of the flagpole that stands on the side of the inn is frighteningly high, the smoke is faint and almost invisible.

Yuan Lai followed Liu Wen into the inn, there were already many people inside, and when his feet just crossed the threshold, he suddenly heard a voice from inside.

Of course, the voice of the voice was not strange, and what really drew his attention was the content of the words.

"Liu Chonghu and Liu Gongzi are really big masters! This chess game is obviously a dead game, but now he is alive! Not only that, but he even forced the opponent into a dead game, which is really amazing!"

Liu Chonghu, Liu Gongzi, and Yuan Lai felt that this name was somewhat familiar.

"I conceded. Liu Chonghu's voice was faint, not showing joy or anger, and said to the opponent who was playing against him.
