Chapter 64: Live Well

Probably every senior brother and sister of the Autumn Dao Academy in the past would be jealous of the unique luck and glory of this class of new students of Daye.

Every year, before the freshmen of the Autumn Dao Academy go to Buzhou Mountain to practice, they will enter the palace of the Son of Heaven of Da Ye to meet and obtain the personal advice of the Emperor of Da Ye. Being able to see the face of heaven and listen to the teachings in person, and accept the glory of entering the Autumn Dao Academy in the Temple of the Son of Heaven, this is in itself something that few people in Da Ye can do, how many young cultivators have old faces and bright hair, and they have never set foot in such a hall.

And the key is that every cultivator who has received the advice of the Son of Heaven to enter the Autumn Dao Academy in the main hall is estimated to have never been able to receive the blessing from the Holy Maiden of Xituo. As the last precious gift to Daye when the envoy of Xituo was leaving. Therefore, this kind of ritual seems to be more and more important.

The Qichunhou Mansion was already busy before dawn in the early morning, and the people up and down began to prepare for the Qichunhou today, as well as the preparations required for Yang Ze and his party to enter the palace. After the preparations were made at the beginning of the day, Yang Ze wore brand new clothes, and added a knee-length thin silk gown before going out, and the whole person looked delicate and energetic.

When I walked to the door of the mansion, I saw Xue Ran, who was wearing a yellow dress and was particularly bright. The two of them looked at each other and were slightly stunned, Xue Ran still inexplicably had a subtle feeling of a sudden light in his eyes, and then turned his head, but his right hand pressed his left hand on his left waist, bent his knees slightly, and gave a soft blessing to the female surname. went out and got into the car that belonged to her outside.

Yang Hong Yuanying and Yang Ze went to the palace together, said goodbye to everyone in the mansion, and then got into their own carriage, and then the people of the Hou Mansion drove along the road, passing by the streets of Shanglin, and running over the well-organized bluestone road, there were already pedestrians on the side of the road who recognized the convoy, and they knew who was sent to the palace, so some people stroked the fence and smiled, "The Marquis of Qichun seems to be relieved, the young generation of the Hou Mansion has produced many talents, and there are successors!"

At this moment, there are still many convoys, just like a long dragon, driving through the streets of Shanglin Qianmo, driving through the chessboard-like city, with countless people looking up and paying attention. Head towards the Shanglin Imperial Palace.

The air in the early morning was extremely fresh, and Yang Ze got out of the car and saw the spectacular cars bustling and gathering outside the palace. The flow of people was chaotic but orderly, and they entered the palace under the solemnity of the forbidden army and the guidance of the ceremonial officials.

After waiting for some time to enter the palace, I saw the grandeur of the Son of Heaven Hall from afar.

The eight-person high gates were all open open, and the open area outside the hall was already full of many officials and clans wearing official uniforms, and everyone stood outside the hall, gathering one after another, chatting idly, or groups of three or five were walking towards their positions, talking and laughing, but everyone's expressions revealed the heaviness of the big event behind the relaxation. Enrollment at Kingdom Autumn Road College is a major event every year. The visit of young practitioners to the Emperor of Dezhao is also a major event that must be done every year.

Yang Ze and the others walked to the side passage in the hall, and there were already people leading the way in front, and there were courteous officials standing on both sides, so they had already been noticed by many people and looked from the side, or they gathered their heads together and pointed at them. Some of the official families seemed to know someone in the crowd, and someone waved to greet them from afar. There is a response here.

It's just that this situation makes people feel a little nervous invisibly.

After entering the palace, there were naturally courteous officials who came to separate Yang Ze, Liu Qian and others from the people in the Hou Mansion of Qichun, and everyone in the Hou Mansion went to the bustling hall and waited for the ceremony to proceed. And Yang Ze, the cultivators who had passed the enrollment, went to the tea hall at the back of the hall first, waiting to enter the hall to meet him.

The imaginary Son of Heaven Hall is not the kind of splendid feeling in Yang Ze's impression, but it is extremely solemn, simple and solemn.

Following the leadership of the ceremonial officer, Yang Ze and the three of them entered the tea hall, and found that many people had arrived, and everyone was still chatting with each other, and there was some buzzing sound in the air.

Yang Ze subconsciously saw Dong Xuan on the other side of the teahouse, probably because they hadn't seen each other for a long time, and the two looked at each other. Yang Ze's clear eyes did not avoid, and smiled at her.

Dong Xuan obviously didn't expect that Yang Ze's whole person, whether it was dressed or temperament, would change so much in the rumors during this time, first stunned, and then turned his head slightly unnaturally, as if he didn't see Yang Ze's smile, and continued the previous topic with others.

Yang Ze and the three of them found a free place to sit down, and the sound of everyone chatting around them slowly became squirming again. Half of the twenty-five people are from the royal capital, but most of them are from the south and the north, so except for the people they knew from the beginning, most of them are not very familiar with each other, if Liu Qian and Xue Ran have seen each other in the big exam. Yang Ze was absolutely impressed.

But soon I can think of the quota for exempt admission before the big exam. It was immediately clear that this was the third son of Yang who was in the limelight of Shangguan Yan and had a somewhat dim brilliance.

When Shangguan Yan entered the hall, everyone couldn't help but look at him. Some people have some reverence for him, which must be because of his first-class achievements and cultivation. Some people were slightly hostile to him, and Shangguan Yan was extremely popular, so much so that this kind of edge stabbed some people around him who were also self-conscious, so he was a little hostile.

Shangguan Yan walked into the hall with great style, sat in a vacant seat where there was no one around, his eyes only lightly scanned the people in the hall, and when he landed on Yang Ze, he saw him leisurely drinking tea without being taken by his momentum at all. His eyes sank, but it was only a matter of a moment, and he immediately looked away.

He said at the time that he was going to take the big exam to raise his prestige, and then he really rode the dust, and everyone was dwarfed in front of him in the big exam. He was the first in the big exam, and he was the first in the temple today. So he stabilized Yang Ze. There is no suspense. Thinking like this, Shangguan Yan became more and more stable and waited for the grand ceremony to begin.

The outer hall was already filled with the sound of singing, and ceremonial music was played.

The ceremonial official who entered the teahall who had been in this kind of battle for a long time didn't know if it was because all the people in the world were looking forward to seeing the participation of the Holy Maiden of Zhenyan Xituo, so his expression was slightly flustered, and finally reminded everyone of the etiquette to pay attention to when receiving the blessing of the Holy Maiden. Then he led everyone out of the hall and into the main hall.

Even if everyone had been prepared, when they saw the seat next to the Emperor of Dezhao on the main hall, the woman with flowing clouds and water sleeves and a bright skirt, everyone's hearts were still beating for themselves.

Many people outside the main hall and the hall were looking at it from afar, and they witnessed that Xituo and his party were exposed when they left Daye, causing Shanglin City to tremble the demeanor of the Holy Maiden of Xituo.

Ji Linger sat on the seat elegantly, not rejecting the coldness of thousands of miles away, but with a faint smile, which made her look very friendly, like a clear stream, and always gave people a feeling of relaxation and happiness.

Even a tsundere character like Shangguan Yan didn't dare to look at Ji Ling'er in the hall too much, so he stopped at a touch and lowered his head with a touch of piety. Everyone was like this, and when she looked at her with a smile, everyone bowed their heads slightly to show respect, not wanting to look directly, not daring to look directly.

Except for Yang Ze.

The two had already guessed that there would be such a situation, so they smiled faintly at each other. Yang Ze's heart was also slightly palpitating and shaking, he had just guessed that Ji Ling'er was not small. But when I actually saw her appear in front of the temple as herself, the feeling of having a shock surname was completely different.

Jia Mu looked directly at Yang Ze at that moment, and there was a flicker of light and darkness in his eyes.

Dezhao Tianzi immediately announced the start of the pro-strategy in a mellow voice. First of all, the title of the monk of the Wei Monastery was conferred on everyone, and the corresponding reward was given, and then the prospect of everyone's cultivation in Buzhou Mountain, hoping that everyone would actively explore the truth and embark on a smooth path of cultivation.

Wait for the Son of Heaven to finish his own planning. The crowd below had already gathered their spirits.

Ji Ling'er got up under the gaze of countless eyes, and there was already a maid from Xituo holding a white silk silk in her hand. She faced Yang Ze and the other twenty-five people, and her voice was as beautiful as reciting a ballad, "The path of cultivation is long and distant, sometimes like facing the vast abyss, sometimes like climbing ten thousand mountains. Broad and profound, there is no end. Autumn Road College has stood for more than 100 years and is also a famous party. Everyone who steps into this place should cherish the hope that Daye's young cultivators should not be hindered by the wind under their feet. Don't be stopped by the scenery in front of you, don't be impressed by the boulders ahead, move forward, and face the edge. ”

The voice fell, and the aftermath lingered for a long time.

Many of the clan officials below looked at these young cultivators in front of the hall with longing, and they immediately seemed to feel hope for the future.

Everyone present couldn't hold back some of their emotions, they were inexplicably excited, and their eyes were a little red. From the first step when they began to awaken the sea of true qi and enter the path of cultivation, and then to the current step, they are about to go to the cloud-shrouded Buzhou Mountain to further study. Presumably, many people feel inexplicable in their hearts.

Ji Ling'er's long and tall figure walked slowly, putting on a white silk silk for everyone. It was some kind of ritual that Sita blessed the divine.

Shangguan Yan was the first person to wear it, and when he lowered his head and saw Ji Ling'er put on the white silk for him, his originally steady and deep expression was obviously excited. Obviously, facing Ji Ling'er at this moment, her heart was pious and undulating.

Next was the second person, who was directly so excited that his eyes were red, and tears couldn't help but fall. Someone below His Highness let out a soft cry, apparently the young student's family, and wept with joy.

Next is each one in turn.

Xue Ran put on the white silk and couldn't hide his excitement and said to Ji Ling'er, "Thank you." Although she was in charge of the inner treasury of the Hou Mansion and was a little cold, she really saw the Holy Maiden of Xituo close in front of her at this moment. That admiration for her is naturally needless to say.

Ji Ling'er smiled slightly, "No thanks." ”

The light of the sky shines in from outside the hall, covering the scene with a faint twilight, and the warm air of early summer sucks into people's lungs, giving them a gentle and comfortable feeling.

When he saw Ji Ling'er from the inner courtyard of the palace, Yang Ze didn't know that one day in the near future, he would stand on top of this kind of hall that attracted thousands of people, watching this woman with extraordinary status bless everyone one by one. He didn't know that after they met like that, they would announce each other's final parting in such a way.

It was impossible for him to follow her to the Situo Temple in the Far North, although in this vast world, anything could be done, anything was possible. But everyone's path is very different. At least for Yang Ze, what he is choosing now are two paths that are very different from Ji Ling'er.

First of all, he had to protect the people around him, protect Yang Hongyuan's relieved smile, protect the comfort of Cheng Ying when he peeled oranges, and protect the time when he and Yang Que and Yang Wenyuan sat around drinking under the moonlight before they could talk about anything else.

In the end, Ji Ling'er came to him.

The Qi Chunhou below, Yang Hongyuan, Cheng Ying and others from the Qichun Marquis Mansion all looked neat and looked at the front of the hall with a little excitement.

Ji Ling'er looked at him with a smile in her eyes and said, "Congratulations, young cultivator. ”

The two have already had a tacit understanding of these words, and they have already spoken to each other under the moonlit night. However, speaking from Ji Ling'er's mouth at this moment, Yang Ze seemed to feel that she was not the high-ranking Xituo Holy Maiden at the moment, but Ji Ling'er, who was a little playful and fell into the world.

"Let's say goodbye in the end. Yang Ze smiled.

"Hmm. Ji Ling'er nodded. took down the white silk in the hand of the maid who looked at Yang Ze uncertainly, put it around his neck, and said softly, "You said that you should be strong and protect the things around you." I don't know exactly what you're trying to protect, but at this moment you seem to be on the path you're going to take. There is nothing more to the path of cultivation than to be obsessed with the choices you make. So, stick with it. ”

Yang Ze stroked Bai Aya with his hand and felt the silkiness, nodded and said, "In a vulgar phrase, one day I will practice very high, as high as several buildings." Become a hero of the world, and then wear golden armor and holy clothes, step on colorful auspicious clouds, and come to marry vigorously"

Then he changed his words when Ji Linger's eyes were slightly cold, "Come to you." ”

The appearance of the two made others slightly strange and surprised. It's even a little unclear.

But more people seem to have discovered and have some premonitions, isn't it the third son of Yang, who met the saint?

Although this sentence seemed very vulgar to Yang Ze, Ji Ling'er's eyes still flashed a few times rapidly, her breathing was slightly tight, and then she tapped her head lightly, "Well, I'm waiting for you to practice very high," she finally couldn't help but laugh and said, "When you are as tall as several buildings, you come to me vigorously."

"Our people there are used to hugging each other when they leave. Although he knew that he was shameless, Yang Ze couldn't help but blurt out when he looked at Ji Ling'er who was about to turn around at this moment.

Ji Linger's body shook slightly, her expression was as flat as before, and the steps that should have turned around and left did not move out again for some reason. The pause left silence so silent that there was no sound.

She stood in front of her. She didn't know why she didn't turn around decisively, she just experienced a different feeling from Yang Ze's body that she might not be able to experience in the rest of her life.

Ji Linger's hesitant and standing appearance made Yang Ze's heart beat at that moment.

Then he stepped forward unceremoniously and hugged Ji Ling'er into his arms. The hand touched her soft waist, and the ice muscles warmed themselves. She was tall, and even with Yang Ze's height, her lips touched her slightly pointed ears. One-touch stop. Ji Linger's face flushed, and the soft touch and exhalation in her ears shocked and embarrassed Yang Ze so much. Then Yang Ze let go of her and took a step back. It was like that moment, nothing happened.

A flick of the finger is sixty moments, and nine hundred lives and deaths in an instant.

Nine hundred lives and deaths in an instant! Below the surrounding halls, countless people gasped for cold breath, and swept through like a bellows!

The black and crowded heads of the palace of the Son of Heaven in Daye, whether it was those officials who looked dangerous in official uniforms, or those princes and clans who had seen a lot of knowledge and were calm and calm in any scene, suddenly collectively seemed to be countless droplets of boiling water in a pot, boom!

Countless people were like frogs in the lotus pond on the summer solstice, with their eyes puffed out, staring at the hall in a daze!

This wave pushed forward at a speed visible to the naked eye to the countless official clans standing in the square circle outside the hall, but most people did not understand where this sudden explosive wave of surnames came from, and what happened in the hall that made the people around them crazy! Regardless of the majesty of the Son of Heaven, regardless of the holy face of Nasita! Don't look at the prince! Disrespect that majesty!

At that moment, Da Ye De Zhao Tianzi's expression froze, looking at Yang Ze's demeanor was incomparably weird and wonderful!

At that moment, Liu Qian, Xue Ran, and the other twenty-four young cultivators collectively took a step back, but this step was cowardly, helpless, humble, and scattered! Dong Xuan's face changed at that moment, as if an invisible palm suddenly smashed the most exquisite porcelain and future carved out of her heart bit by bit to the ground, and shattered her bones in an instant.

The moment he saw the woman he worshiped devoutly in his heart being embraced, Shangguan Yan's heart seemed to be twisted by someone fiercely holding the heart petal. The whole person almost vomited a mouthful of dog blood!

At that moment, the holy envoy of the temple of Situo, the holy envoy of the temple of Situo, the holy envoy of the proud of his talents, the holy envoy of the proud of his talents, and the holy envoy of Gaochuan Yangzhi. Boom!

His beautiful face was distorted with the most extreme hatred at that moment, like a fine ukiyo-e splashed with ink stained with teeth and claws, bursting out with the most extremely dark face in his heart, "Blasphemy against the saint is a sin worthy of death!"

These words resounded loudly in the main hall, until the words disappeared, and they seemed to stir in the ears of everyone.

The faces of the countless Da Ye official families in front of the hall became silent at that moment. The atmosphere paused a few times in the air of destruction. All the princes, nobles, and royal family escorts, countless people were shocked inexplicably.

Poof! The Marquis of Qichun in front of the row has already knelt down on one knee! Smashing the temple stone on the kneeling ground, the lion-like voice is low and tragic, "I hope the saint forgives her sins!"

The next moment, countless people in front of the hall fell to their knees! Then came a uniform voice, "I hope the Holy Maiden forgives her sins!" "I hope the Holy Maiden forgives her sins!"

The new students in front of them were so frightened that their feet were weak and wanted to kneel, and at the moment when Dong Xuan and Xue Ran were stinging in their eyes and tears fell uncontrollably under this urging scene. Ji Ling'er turned around and faced the people of Qi Chunhou who were kneeling, and her painted star eyes smiled smartly at that moment, "What a crime." ”

What a sin. To put it mildly, in front of this explosive scene, a kind of devastating destructive power swept over. Qi Chunhou, who was kneeling on one knee, shook slightly, and looked at Ji Ling'er, who had a bland face except for a wisp of red on his face and a messy bun, but his face was as plain as usual, and at that moment the old eyes were so excited that there was a trace of splash. These words swept through the crowd below, and the fear of destruction in the hearts of countless people was like a rebirth, looking at the woman in front of the hall who was as pure as an epiphany.

Ji Ling'er only turned around to look at Yang Ze at this time, and said in a voice that was not big but could almost be heard by everyone's meditation, "You don't want to go to the Xituo Temple with me to practice, I don't force it." I hope you are here, and you can still grow well, so let's separate here. ”

At that moment, accompanied by the kneeling crowd cheering up, only to discover that this fact was sensational. The Holy Maiden of Xituo actually wanted to absorb Yang Ze to go to the Xituo Palace, and the most critical problem was that this Yang Ze actually refused!

The Holy Envoy Camus's burst eyes were first stunned, and then pierced through the pathos and desolation of the bones, and his flowing hair crown was slightly slanted because of the panic just now, his hair was scattered, and the red light in his eyes flickered. At this time, he stood beside him without any position, as if his angry shouting just now was scattered like a fart in the wind.

Yang Ze was a little moved, knowing that Ji Ling'er was adding this sentence at the moment, helping himself to eliminate the aftermath of the matter to the greatest extent. even made it impossible for Gamuus to continue to chase and fight. At this moment, I realized that from the beginning, this woman has always been so blue-hearted.

Ji Ling'er glanced at him one last time, and a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, "You don't need to keep your previous promise, yes, you don't need to come to me again, you just need to remember that from now on, you have to live well." ”

In this world, the most important thing is not Yang Ze's ethereal promise, nor is it stepping on the colorful auspicious clouds and stepping on the vigorous top of 10,000 people. It's that everyone has their own trajectory, and maybe they don't intersect. Yang Ze also has his own chosen path, which has dangers, crises, unknowns, and inexplicable palpitations.

She didn't expect to see Yang Ze again in her lifetime. Not to mention the extravagance of Yang Ze to be able to go to the Nasituo Temple. She just wanted him to live well.

In this way, she occasionally remembered Da Ye's short stay in the far north, remembered the stories that did not exist in this world and was deeply touched, and even when she thought of him, she would at least smile.
