Lin Hu chatted with the father and son of the Xiong family, and agreed to go to the school palace with Xiong Sifang three days later to perform the entrance ceremony, and then they said goodbye and went home.

Lin Hu and Xixi returned to the back house of the Linzi Chamber of Commerce, and as soon as they entered the door, they found that all the junior brothers and sisters were waiting in the main hall!

Before everyone could speak, Lin Hu asked anxiously, "Has Xue Da come back?"

Everyone shook their heads, and Zhang Zixiu said, "Didn't you go out together? Why didn't you come back together." ”

Alas, Lin Hu sighed worriedly.

Shao Yang stood up and asked excitedly, "Senior brother, how are you doing in the big exam?"

As soon as he heard this question, Lin Hu's face was a little embarrassed: "My test is about the same as Xixi......"

"How did you do in the exam?" everyone felt that there was something strange in it, and they perseveredly asked.

"That's naturally similar to me......" Lin Hu said vaguely.

Everyone rolled their eyes, and Gongsun Qingzhi asked Xixi directly: "Xixi, how did you do in the exam?"

Xixi smiled and replied: "I went to sleep in Nagong Courtyard and didn't write anything, and then the time is up!"

"So, Senior Brother is ...... too" Everyone couldn't help but look at Lin Hu with disdain, "Senior Brother has scored zero in the three-day hell training camp and then scored zero in the exam......"

Lin Hu only felt that his face was a little unbearable, and his face was a little ruddy.

I heard Shao Yang suddenly cross his waist, laugh, stretched out his hands, one hand towards Zhang Zixiu, and the other towards Huo Ze: "Hahaha, give me money quickly!

Zhang Zixiu and Huo Ze both glanced at Lin Hu with resentment, and took out the money bag from their arms......

Lin Hu looked at these people in surprise, not knowing what they were doing.

Gongsun Qingzhi covered her mouth and smiled, explaining: "Giggles, the three of them bet." Shao Yang said that you can't enter the outer courtyard of the palace, Zhang Zixiu and Huo Xue said that you can. Now it looks like Shaoyang has won......"

Shao Yang smiled and accepted the money, while still chattering: "I said senior brother, it's okay, it's okay." This victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers! This Shushan sword master can't pass the big exam in the outer courtyard of the school palace, and there is nothing too embarrassing! If you can't pass the big exam in the school palace, you have to find another way to enter the school palace...... The wisdom of the elder brother, we must trust the drop...... Huo Ze, there are five taels less here! You kid actually wants to get away with it! Give the money quickly!"

Lin Hu looked at Shao Yang's snort, and stepped forward and hit him on the head with a violent shudder, Shao Yang sighed!

Lin Hu snatched the money from his hand and threw it back to Huo Ze and Zhang Zixiu, the two of them looked happy, took it with both hands and put it in their arms, and looked at Shao Yang fearlessly and triumphantly.

Shao Yang covered his head with his hands, and his face was aggrieved: "Senior brother, this is willing to gamble and lose......!

Lin Hu glared at him: "I scored zero in the big exam." But I didn't say that I couldn't enter the school palace! In three days, I will attend this year's entrance ceremony of the Dongqi School Palace!"

"Ah, Senior Brother, you won't spend money to go through the back door, will you?" asked Shao Yang.

Lin Hu, who had been punctured from his original thoughts, was suddenly a little flustered, when did this Shao Yang's brain become so smart, and the crooked and evil ways turned quickly.

"Nonsense!" Lin Hu reprimanded, "There is a teacher in the school palace who wants to accept me as a disciple and ask me to learn Confucianism and Taoism from him...... I already worship him as a teacher, so naturally I can be regarded as a disciple of the Academy!"

"Oh?" everyone wondered.

Lin Hu explained in detail the matter of apprenticing to Zou Shi, and everyone was surprised when they heard it.

Zhang Zixiu also praised sincerely: "Master Zou is really a famous teacher of Confucianism and Taoism, and his mind and courage are not something ordinary people can have!"

Lin Hu nodded with emotion, and he also made up his mind to practice hard and inherit this Yin Yang Confucianism, if it can be combined with the way of the sword, it would be the best to inherit the Everbright lineage.

Shao Yang saw that everyone didn't care, his footsteps moved to the door, and he said, "Senior brother, you must be tired after taking the exam in the morning." I'm going to find someone to prepare tea for you......"

He turned around and wanted to leave, but it was Zhang Zixiu and Huo Xue who grabbed one of his arms and said in unison: "Where are you going! Give money!"

Shao Yang couldn't help but look bitter, and the others looked funny......

A group of teenagers in Shushan were laughing, and suddenly someone came to report that Xue Da was back.

Lin Hu hurriedly came out to greet him, only to see that Xue Da was even more sluggish than when he was separated, with his head down, swaying, and his face was full of trance and disbelief!

Wan Tuhu, who had a deeper friendship with him, was also strange in his eyes, and couldn't help but look at Lin Hu in surprise.

Lin Hu sighed helplessly and said in a low voice, "I'll tell you later." ”

Then he walked up to Xue Da, as if to comfort him a few more words.

But this Xue Da didn't seem to have recovered from the blow at all, he still had some thoughts that didn't belong, and he didn't pay attention to Lin Hu, so he staggered and walked towards his room, and as he walked, he seemed to be muttering to himself: "Promise or not...... Worship or not ......"

Lin Hu saw it in his eyes, and he didn't get angry at all because he was neglected, but he felt even more uncomfortable in his heart, but he couldn't think of any solution. This Xue Da's pride and stubbornness can be regarded as stumped him!

Xue Da walked a few steps, suddenly thought of something, turned to look at Lin Hu and the others, saw that they were all worried, his heart warmed, his face smiled, and he said with relief: "I'm fine! Don't worry! I just need to make an important decision now......"

Hearing this, Lin Hu and the others were also a little relieved.

Xue Da turned around and went back to his room.

Everyone looked at Lin Hu suspiciously, and Lin Hu explained the reason for Xue Da's fall in detail to everyone.

As soon as he heard this, Shao Yang first jumped to his feet and scolded: "This Guan Le Shui is the minister of a country and the head of a hundred officials, why is he so stingy!"

Several other people were also indignant, and even Wan Tuhu had clenched his fists with a sinister face.

Only Zhang Zixiu's complexion was a little complicated.

"Zixiu, you are from Dongqi, what do you think?" Lin Hu noticed that Zhang Zixiu's demeanor was different, and asked out loud.

"Senior brother, Guan Leshui can be said to have a mixed reputation in Eastern Qi, and even his reputation among scholars is seriously polarized! Some people say that he is a generation of famous ministers, and he has contributed a lot to the fact that Xuegong and Dongqi have such a power, and some people say that he is greedy for power, has no king, and has a faint heart of disobedience. But I've never heard anyone say that he's narrow-minded and doesn't have the capacity to accommodate people......," Zhang Zixiu said slowly.

Lin Hu also frowned slightly, and nodded: "I'm also a little suspicious here." If this Guan Leshui is really so generous, how can it be from a cloth cloth to such a status! I can't figure it out, there may be another reason for this. ”

After that, Lin Hu shook his head: "This is put aside in advance, Xue Da's life has to be decided by himself! Let's talk about my Shushan business first!"

The others sat down with solemn faces.

"Now that the first step has been achieved, Xixi and I entered the palace three days later, and officially became disciples of the Confucianism and Taoism Outer Court after passing the entrance ceremony. Ah Hu, Qing Zhi, Zi Xiu, the three of you will enter the outer courtyard of the sword! In this second step, we must thoroughly investigate the ins and outs of this illusory sword! How did this sword come about, how did it be lost, and we can't completely listen to the words of the school palace! This time back to Zhao, my father told me a sentence, it is difficult for people to distinguish between good and evil, and it is easy to distinguish between right and wrong! No matter what role the school palace plays in this matter, we only treat things, not people, and we have doubts in our hearts......
