Xiong Sifang in the crowd immediately found Lin Hu who came upstairs, and he was finally a little happy when he was a little tired of being greeted, and shouted: "Brother Lin!"

Lin Hu nodded, took two steps forward and arched his hand with a smile: "Congratulations to Zhuangyuanlang!"

It's okay not to mention it, but when he mentioned this Xiong Sifang, his face suddenly felt a little worried: "This title of champion is really not worthy of the name! If it weren't for Brother Xue's strategy......" Thinking of the people around him, he sighed and wanted to stop talking.

"Brother Xiong, why bother! Of course you are worthy of your name!" Xue Da smiled, as if he didn't care, but Lin Hu still saw that he couldn't hide his loneliness in his heart.

Yes! After more than 20 years of hard study, the Four Books and the Five Classics can be said to be recited backwards! Even Haoran Qi has cultivated to the great perfection of the Qi Realm without a teacher! No matter how popular he is, every move has the style of Confucianism! Such a person, the champion talent, but because he wrote a policy treatise, which coincided with the current delicate situation, he actually offended the representative figure of today's Confucian and Taoist scholars in the court -- Guan Leshui! Not to mention the top three now, not even the top 1,000! And the most worrying thing is that with the current practice of Guan Leshui, he has remembered his name, even if he continues to take the test next year, I am afraid that it will be more than lucky?

How can this make Xue Da, who abandoned everything and just studied in the school palace, not be lonely or melancholy!

Lin Hu didn't know how to comfort Xue Da, so he could only step forward and pat him on the shoulder, and said in a low voice, "Xue Da, let's go back first." Others are still waiting for us at the Chamber of Commerce......"

After speaking, Lin Hu arched his hand towards Xiong Sifang again: "Brother Xiong, the three of us will retire for the time being!"

Xiong Sifang was still surrounded by a group of happy people, and he didn't know if he heard Lin Hu's farewell.

Lin Hu pulled Xue Da, and Xixi was about to go downstairs.

"Brother Lin stays!"

Hearing that the voice was not Xiong Quartet, Lin Hu turned his head, and it turned out to be the three young people who had had a verbal conflict that stopped him.

At this moment, there are many people around these three people, and they are also like stars and moons.

"Brother Lin, the younger brother didn't say anything just now, and I have to make amends to Brother Lin!" The young scholar who was reprimanded by Zou just now said: "I am Zhu Zhengming, this is Wen Zhishan, and this is Pang Xiushen. This time, all three of us were admitted to the entrance palace, and the rankings are still good. Since Brother Lin has been accepted by Master Zou under the door wall, we will be classmates in the future! I will buy a table of water and wine, and call Xiong Zhuangyuan, and a few of our future classmates will forget about unpleasantness and get together to talk about Confucianism!"

This man's posture is low, and his words are sincere!

Lin Hu smiled, waved his hand, and politely refused: "It's okay, I won't take it to heart." Water and wine don't have to be, if you have something today, you will meet again another day. ”

"Brother Lin......" As soon as Zhu Zhengming wanted to keep him again, Lin Hu had already pulled Xue Dahe Xixi and turned around and went downstairs!

This atmosphere froze suddenly, Zhu Zhengming only felt that he had lost face in front of everyone, his face was flushed with anger, and he said hatefully: "This person is so unpopular! I don't know what Master Zou likes, he actually accepts this person with zero scores in the test as a disciple!"

"Why should Brother Zhu be angry!" The man who had not spoken in the three of them finally opened his mouth, and Wen Yan persuaded, "Perhaps, this Brother Lin really has an urgent matter at home and rushes back, next time we will meet again!"

"Zhishan, you deserve to be the eye of this year's list, you are really generous!" Zhu Zhengming and Pang Xiushen praised together.

Wen Zhishan smiled gently, and looked at the back of Lin Hu, who had already gone out of the building, and inadvertently a cold light flashed in his eyes......

......

Lin Hu and the three of them walked on the street, and Xue Da kept his head down and kept silent. There was some silence between the three.

Lin Hu finally spoke: "Xue Da, what are your plans in the future?"

Xue Da raised his head a little dazedly and muttered, "Yes, what are your plans for the future...... Will you take the test again next year?"

Although some words are difficult to say, since they are good friends, Lin Hu feels that it is still necessary to wake up Xue Da.

He pondered his words and spoke: "Now you have offended Guan Leshui, and since he paid homage to the prime minister, he has been the chief examiner of every school palace examination, responsible for the final ranking determination. You have offended him now, and judging by what he is doing now, you may be more than lucky next year......"

Xue Da didn't have an interface, he was silent, and his eyes were even more dazed.

Lin Hu said again: "Actually, if you want to enter the palace, this palace exam is not the only way?"

This time, Xue Da finally opened his mouth and asked suspiciously: "Ah, Dabao, what do you mean by this?"

Lin Hujun's face was a little embarrassed: "Actually, yesterday I thought that I couldn't pass this big exam......!

Hearing this, Xixi "hehe" smiled, and it didn't matter if she commented on this "no learning and no skills".

"So I went to the Chamber of Commerce," Lin Hu blushed even more, "I used the money to buy two places in the entrance palace!"

"What? can you buy this place?" Xue Da looked incredulous, which was even more surprised than when he saw that there was no name on the list.

"Xue Da, the school palace also needs money. The students' food, clothing, housing, and transportation, the living guarantee of teaching and learning, and the construction of study houses in various places all need money, and a lot of money is needed!" Lin Hu said patiently, "Even if the school palace is a holy place of Confucianism and Taoism, it cannot be detached from the world, and it is dedicated to asking questions and not eating grains. Actually, it's just that the school palace needs too much money, and ordinary people can't give it. That's why I feel like it's beyond the outside......"

Xue Da was silent for a long time, and sighed in the sky!

Why is this world so complicated? At the beginning, I felt that I would be able to pass the big exam by letting go of my burden, giving up everything and going out into the Shicun, and then relying on what I had learned in my life, and then I would be able to cultivate Confucianism assiduously and show my ambitions! Now that I think about it, I am so naïve! Just because of an unintentional mistake, I am now unable to move an inch!

Lin Hu was also a little sad when he looked at Xue Da's appearance, but he still continued: "Of the two places now, one is occupied by Xixi, but I don't need it, and the remaining one ......."

Before he finished speaking, Xue Da stopped him: "Dabao, you don't have to say it! I understand your kindness." I also understand that using this quota to enter the Academy Palace may be my best choice now. Once I entered the school palace, Guan Leshui couldn't drag me out again without shame. Then, as long as I study hard in the school palace, I may not be able to achieve success in my studies and achieve a career in the future......"

Lin Hu nodded: "I think that's exactly the case!"

"But ......," Xue Da laughed miserably, "if I enter the holy land of my heart like this, then what is the purpose of my hard study for more than 20 years? Why do I sleep on the third watch every day, get up on the fifth watch, and have hunger and cold in my belly, but my mouth is "University" and "The Mean"? Why do I cling to the lonely mansion, farming all over the world for a bite to eat, endure countless white eyes and ridicule, and hold a hoe, reading "The Analects" and "Spring and Autumn"? Dabao, do you think I have been a joke for more than 20 years? Actually, I just need to know a good friend......"

Lin Hu looked at Xue Da, only to feel very depressed in his chest, and really didn't know how to persuade her.

"Dabao, I want to go quietly alone, don't worry about me. I'll go back later......" Xue Da made a bleak smile and staggered away.

Lin Hu could only look at him and shook his head, whether he could pass the level in his heart or not had to rely on himself!

Xue Da, come on!
