Chapter 16: Late?
Chapter 16 Late?
Before these people could make a move, a slightly older person with the appearance of a deacon walked over, wearing a green cloth hat and looking very conspicuous: "The registration for this year's Tianlingmen entrance test has ended, please wait a while, someone will come to tell you what to do next." ”
Liang Xi was munching on the chicken breast, and was stunned when he heard the words: "It's over?
At that moment, he swallowed the meat down his throat in two bites, wiped his hand on his pants a few times, and hurriedly ran towards the deacon.
There was no need to shout "hard work" along the way, because these dignitaries and nobles avoided him, for fear that their expensive clothes would touch a little dirt.
When Liang Xi arrived, the deacon had just finished packing up the thick roster and was about to leave.
Seeing the deacon's slightly chubby cheeks, Liang Xi gasped several times, and his title changed from old gentleman, old thing, and old guy to a few words, and finally he forced out a sentence: "This lord." ”
When the deacon heard this title, it was quite fresh, so he looked at Liang Xi, although he didn't like his dirty outfit very much, but he still politely asked, "Is there anything wrong?"
"You just said that the registration is over?" Liang Xi hurriedly asked.
"Yes. The deacon nodded and looked Liang Xi up and down, "Are you—?"
Liang Xi hurriedly made a pitiful look: "My lord, I have been sleeping in the open for more than ten days, and I have been begging all the way in the hope of joining Tianlingmen, and I have suffered the eyes and ridicule of the world along the way, but I have a belief, that is, I hope to meet the adult who is in charge of the registration of Tianlingmen in my lifetime, because someone has told me that the adult is upright, handsome, and fat, and he is a model praised by everyone." ”
Although Liang Xi was full of nonsense, the deacon actually suffered from his sycophancy, and his old face smiled as if it was a blooming chrysanthemum: "The world says this, and the old man has already heard of it." ”
Liang Xi gave a thumbs up in his heart, and someone who was more shameless than me finally appeared! I am willing to worship second!
Although he despised the old thing from head to foot in his heart, Liang Xi was still careful to accompany the smiling face: "My lord, my hard work all the way is to be able to join the Tianlingmen to listen to your earnest teachings, and now I am late for this hour and a half, and it is also because I studied your quotations before going to bed last night until this morning, and I got up too late in the morning, I don't believe it, I haven't brushed my teeth and washed my face." ”
Seeing that Liang Xi was about to jump in front of him, the deacon hurriedly waved his hand to stop it, for fear of being rubbed by his dirty clothes.
Seeing the disgust on the deacon's face, Liang Xi secretly cursed in his heart, his heart was still a little fox, and he nestled in my arms and didn't move.
Let Liang Xi keep a distance from himself, and the deacon said with arrogance on his face: "The ancients had to be punctual and trustworthy, our Tianlingmen is a famous faction in the Chu State, since the rules have been set, how can we change them as a joke." ”
Seeing the embarrassed look on the deacon's face, Liang Xi cautiously leaned forward a little, and said with a mysterious face: "My lord, the rules are also set by people, if the people above you know that you have satisfied the heart of a kind-hearted young man today, they will definitely be very happy." As he spoke, his palm was raised, and a silver light flashed in his palm, and then he quickly retracted it.
Seeing this, the deacon's eyes flashed, but his face was impassive: "Do you see our Tianlingmen people too clearly?
said so, but the palm of his hand was not ambiguous at all, and he skillfully turned it over and put a silver ingot offered by Liang Xi into his arms.
Tianlingmen accepts apprentices once every four years, and he can only take advantage of this opportunity to take bribes once, so basically no one refuses.
Seeing that the deacon had a fat head and big ears and a face full of oil after receiving the money, Liang Xi really pressed his head into the pit, but of course this is just an idea.
Since he has received the money, the matter will naturally be taken care of, and anyway, it is just an additional name to the roster, and the deacon himself has nothing to lose.
"I think you have a good Huigen, you may be a talent in the future, if you work hard, you can sit in my current position in the next thirty or fifty years, you have to work hard." The deacon was talking nonsense, but in his heart he didn't take Liang Xi in his eyes at all.
Our Tianlingmen entrance test is so strict, so it's better to go back as soon as possible as you are, and save yourself from being bored.
"Yes, yes, I will definitely bask in the sunshine and rain of your lordship, and contribute to the unification of the rivers and lakes of Tianlingmen. Liang Xi's words obviously made the deacon very useful, and he praised Liang Xi for his knowledge of current affairs.
"Name. The deacon asked, dipping a brush in good ink.
"Liang Xi. ”
"Where did it come from?"
Liang Xi thought about it, he had been living in Yangdu City, so he said, "I'm from Yangdu City." ”
"Oh?" The deacon was taken aback, as far as he knew, the distance from Yangdu City to here was thousands of miles, and he suddenly believed a little more about the long journey that Liang Xi had just said.
After a few strokes, the deacon inadvertently asked, "Yangdu City is far away from here, how did you get here alone?"
Liang Xi didn't think much about it, touched his nose and replied, "I got lost in the forest outside for more than half a year, and I almost died trapped inside. ”
Bang, the deacon's pen fell to the ground all of a sudden, and he didn't care about picking up the pen, so he hurriedly raised his head and carefully looked at Liang Xi from top to bottom, a large piece of cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and he stammered a little when he spoke: "What you just said is the truth?"
The deacon's appearance made Liang Xi a little curious, and suddenly made him a little suspicious: "Yes, what's wrong?"
Glancing at Liang Xi again, he saw that his clothes were tattered and his appearance was similar, and the deacon was sure that he was the person Tian Qiling had told him to take care of before.
The deacon was suddenly flustered, and hurriedly stuffed the silver that Liang Xi handed him back into Liang Xi's hand, and laughed vigorously: "Liang Gongzi, why didn't you say that you were here earlier, and the old man will help you take care of everything." ”
Since this person is Tian Qiling said that he wants to take care of it, eight to nine times out of ten is a certain dignitary, and may even be the heir of a prince and nobleman, otherwise how can he get a person like Tian Qiling to personally interrogate.
Liang Xi was very surprised by the 180-degree turn in the deacon's attitude, but he didn't put his mind on his face, and took the silver back into his arms with a straight face.
Seeing that Liang Gongzi's face was unhappy, the deacon was very anxious, if he annoyed Liang Gongzi, with his relationship with Tian Qiling, he would not have a foothold in Tianlingmen, so he hurriedly slapped Liang Xi's sycophant, and hinted that he would give a good gift, hoping that Liang Gongzi would not mind what happened just now.
Liang Xi's eyes rolled, and his mind was thinking about what was going on at a speed that was ten thousand times faster than premature ejaculation.
I am not familiar with the life on this Tianling Mountain, this old man will not recognize the wrong person.
However, this possibility is also very small, because he heard that he came from Yangdu City and got lost in the forest before he changed his attitude, thinking of this, Liang Xi's mind appeared two figures of a tall and a short girl in white.
"Could it be them?" Liang Xi wrinkled his nose, "There are ghosts, I smell a hint of conspiracy, that girl won't fall in love with my beauty, no, no, I'm not ready from physical to psychological." ”
Seeing that Liang Xi's face was cloudy, the deacon thought that Liang Gongzi was still thinking about what had just happened, and his back was already wet, and he was trying to make good words, and the numbness made Liang Xi's whole body goosebumps.
Not far away, someone saw that the deacon of Tianlingmen, who didn't lie to anyone, was so respectful to such a ragged young man, and he kept nodding his head, and he was immediately extremely curious, and secretly inquired about the identity of that young man.
Liang Xi listened impatiently, stopped the deacon's idea of introducing her thirty-four daughter to him, and asked, "What's your name?"
"The little one's surname is Zhang, his name is Haoyuan, and he is trusted by the head of the sect and becomes the deacon of this registration. Zhang Haoyuan hunched his body and pouted his buttocks, "I will have to rely on Liang Gongzi's care in the future." ”
Liang Xi attributed the reason for all this to the pair of sisters who had made a bet with him at this moment, and suspected that they had to fix themselves before they set up this game, so he was extremely careful, and the more he looked at Zhang Haoyuan, the more he felt dangerous: "Why should you go quickly, don't you see that the world is not peaceful yet!
