Chapter 270: The Bottom of the Lake
There was a gasp from the crowd, looking at the names at the top of the list, they all felt a sense of disbelief, but they felt that they should take it for granted. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"I didn't expect that the son of the Dongfang family was defeated and defeated repeatedly, and now he is a high school Xie Yuan. ā
"Yes, when I first took the children's test, I was still not famous, but now I am counterattacking!"
"I have long said that the dragon and phoenix among the sons of the East have come true!"
There were bursts of exclamations from time to time in the crowd, Xie Yuan at the top of the list was the Dongfang son in the city, and he was also a child of a big clan, in the past, it was difficult to even pass the children's exam, and under the cover of the light of the scholars, it was not worth mentioning, but I didn't expect Xie Yuan to be in high school now.
"Look, the son of the Pan family is actually the second in high school!"
"Yes, the young man of Pan back then was also arrogant, but unfortunately he couldn't go to high school, but he didn't expect to finally get out. ā
"Gold will always shine, and those who are talented will always have a high school day. ā
Everyone looked at the names at the bottom of the list and also let out exclamations.
The scholars crowded in the crowd, looking at the names in front of the top row, their eyes were full of complicated colors, in the children's test in the past, they were at the top of the list, and they were known as the youngest talents, these people were still ranked below themselves, but they didn't expect that a few years later, they would come to such a point.
Hurriedly swept towards the bottom of the list, and the scholar glanced at ten lines, constantly searching for his name.
The first line, there is no ......
The second line, there is no ......
The third line, too, is not ......
It wasn't until the scholar roughly scanned the names on the list that he didn't find his name, and his head couldn't help but feel dizzy, and he almost fainted on the spot.
There was some reluctance in his heart, and the scholar was afraid that he would miss it, so he carefully browsed the names on the list.
In the end, the scholar's face was like ashes, even if he couldn't even get to the bottom of the last place, let alone pass the township test and become a lifter.
This year, it is already the seventh year, and it has been on the list for seven consecutive years, and the classmates who used to compete, although they are lagging behind themselves, are catching up one by one, and they are high school Xie Yuan, and what about themselves......
The scholar was disheartened, his head exploded like thunder, boom, and blank, and he squeezed out of the crowd with staggering steps, and his clothes, which had been neatly groomed by the young woman, were also crumpled and crumpled.
I don't know who hit me in the crowd, this collision, as if hollowing out the strength of the scholar's body, bang, actually fell to the ground, kicked up a lot of dust, and the white-washed robe was also covered with mud and sand.
"Huh?!"
Seeing the scholar fall to the ground, there was a burst of exclamations from the crowd, and they quickly spread out, giving way to an open space, everyone looked at each other, all hanging high, as if they had nothing to do with themselves, and no one wanted to cause trouble.
"I didn't hit him!"
The man closest to the scholar looked at the questioning gaze cast by everyone, and hurriedly waved his hand, his face showing fear, as if he was afraid of taking on some responsibility.
"This person must have failed the list, his heart is haggard, and he faints!"
With a turn of his head, the man seemed to have discovered something, and hurriedly pointed at the scholar and wiped everything out.
"Huh, isn't this person the best talent in the children's test back then?"
"Yes, it's him, I heard that he married the daughter of the foreign family back then!"
"That's right, I know him, since the child test, this person has been getting worse, for seven consecutive years in the township test, he has failed the list again and again, and he has become the laughing stock of everyone!"
Someone in the crowd seemed to recognize the scholar's face, and one by one suddenly realized, one by one, ten by hundred, everyone remembered who this person was.
"I just said, he must have repeatedly failed the list, he was unwilling, and fainted for a while!"
The man who waved his hand at the beginning, when he heard everyone say this, his eyes couldn't help but shine, and his face was even more angry, and he hurriedly brushed things off.
Everyone looked at each other, you looked at me, I looked at you, but no one stepped forward to help the scholar up, as if he was afraid of taking on some responsibility.
At this time, there was a fragrant wind wafting from outside the crowd, and a woman with bright eyes and bright teeth, gentle as water, accompanied by a maid, dressed in plain palace clothes, with a worried face, came to the front of the scholar.
didn't bother to lift his skirt, so he squatted beside the scholar, reached out the back of his hand and put it on his forehead, pinched him again, and helped him up.
The scholar woke up slowly, looked at the face close at hand, and the thoughts in his mind suddenly poured out like a spring, as if a floodgate had been opened.
"I ......"
The scholar opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything, the woman looked at the scholar and woke up, her worried face couldn't help but redden, and then she dispersed with good control, took the maid beside her, and left as if she was running away.
When everyone saw the scholar wake up, they no longer paid attention to him, but those who knew the scholar not only had no look of concern on their faces, but were full of cynicism.
In the seventh year of the township test, I don't know if the scholar will have the courage to participate in the township test again, even if the scenery can be before, the cold door is always a cold door, and it is not comparable to the heritage of the family.
It is not only the foundation of the academic collection, but also the background of interpersonal relationships, it is said that the school administration in charge of the township examination is the representative of the family, and the cat is greasy, which can be imagined.
The scholar looked at the back of the woman drifting away, and felt very bitter in his heart, when he was a child, he shined in the child's test, took the lead, became a representative of the cold family, and became the guest of the family.
The scholar didn't know how he walked out of the city gate in the sneering eyes of everyone, but he only knew that when he was not a few miles away from the entrance of the village, he saw his own lady and ran over in a hurry.
It turned out that there was a person passing by in the township, who saw the scholar faint, and when he was about to step forward, he saw a woman who came forward to help, so he hurriedly went back to inform the lady who was born.
"Xianggong!"
The young woman's face was full of worry, and when she saw that the scholar was safe and sound, she hurriedly rushed forward and turned the scholar over and over to check whether he was ill.
"Lady, I'm ......"
This year's seventh year has fallen off the list, the scholar doesn't know what his face is facing his wife, his heart is full of bitterness, his eyes are already filled with mist, he has always been strong and proud, and finally he can't bear it.
For a while, the blood surged, and the heart was squeezed for many years, the guilt for his wife, and the sadness of suffering from the white eyes, the huge gap suddenly broke out, and the scholar fainted in the arms of the young woman.
Only a rapid call in his ears and the sound of a woman sobbing could be heard, and the scholar fell into a final coma.
Rumble!
Ying Xuan only felt a roar in his head, and suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were already full of mist, with the complex colors of heartache, unwillingness, struggle, and self-blame, he clenched his fists, and his heart was full of helplessness and bitterness.
When he woke up suddenly, the memories suddenly came like a tide, Ying Xuan looked at everything around him, touched his body, and found that everything just now was just a dream of Nan Ke.
At this time, he was in a large hall, the hall was empty, and there was a young man lying beside him, with a fair face and a handsome appearance, which made the woman jealous, and it was Xue Wuxi.
At this moment, Xue Wuji's chest continued to rise and fall, his breathing was very rapid, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, as if he had fallen into a nightmare.
"What a real dream......"
Ying Xuan muttered to himself, and found that his body was also covered in a cold sweat, soaking his clothes, and the dream was extremely real, exposing the weakest and most fearful side of his heart.
Ying Xuan has always been the pride of the sky and a demon in the eyes of everyone, but it is undeniable that he is just a fatherless and motherless orphan, born in a poor family.
Compared with Ren Yanran, Wen Wanshu and other proud women of the sky, there are too many disparities in identity, geniuses are just geniuses, not strong people, and everything is unknown before they grow up.
If you grow up and become a strong person in the limelight, you don't need to say much, if you die halfway through, or your potential is exhausted, then what awaits you is only cynicism and falling into the abyss.
In the dream, he turned into a scholar, young and proud, the child test was the leader, very similar to himself, and the entanglement with the young woman, isn't it Ren Yanran and Wen Wanshu in front of him?
It's just that the ending was extremely tragic, she fell off the list for seven consecutive years, suffered from the young woman who married her, and failed the woman who had never married Yunying, which seems to be a portrayal of reality.
"No, it won't happen!"
Ying Xuan muttered to himself from the beginning of his distraction, to the end of his face clenched his fists fiercely, he would never allow such a thing to happen, it turned out that this was his weakness all along, and the most worrying place in his heart was exposed by the dream.
Cultivating immortals, cultivating is resources, from the overstretched strength of Ying Xuan on the way to refining the spirit soldiers, thinking about the inheritance of Tianjiao Lingfeng in the formation of Dao Peak, thinking about the powerful treasure flags in the hands of Ma Feiming, as well as the heritage of other Tianjiao, Ying Xuan is very afraid that the dream will become a reality.
It won't be long before it is the covenant with Ma Feiming, which is more dangerous than the imperial examination, and it is especially fateful to lose the list, but the battle of the monks is in danger of dying, and after experiencing the dream, Ying Xuan's heart is even more urgent.
"By the way, didn't I get stuck in the lake?"
Ying Xuan suddenly remembered that he and Xue Wuxian crossed the earth lake, but at the last moment, it was a sudden change, the two were swallowed by the earth lake, and they thought they would die here, but they didn't expect the two of them to be safe and sound, and they also entered the nightmare.
Looking around, it is a big hall, there is no building, it is very empty, there is a fierce monster carved on the stone wall, there are thousands of postures, some look up to the sky and roar, some step on the hooves and fly, some grinning, some open teeth and claws, the forms are different, but lifelike.
Looking up, Ying Xuan saw that the sky above the main hall was pitch black, and there seemed to be sparkling waves in it, like a flowing liquid, but it was extremely deep, as if it wanted to swallow people.
"This is the bottom of the earthly lake?!"
Speculation suddenly rose in Ying Xuan's mind, and then he became more and more convinced, the two of them were swallowed by the earthly lake, and then sank to the bottom of the lake, fell from the bottom of the lake, and entered here.
It turns out that the real passage is not to cross the lake, but to enter from the bottom of the lake.
I don't know what the strange place of the earth lake is, and this hall seems to be separated by a layer of enchantment, and the lake water in the earth lake does not pour into the main hall, but is suspended above the main hall.
"Ahh
Just as Ying Xuan was pondering and guessing, an exclamation suddenly came from beside him, and then he saw Xue Wuxian sitting up in panic with a panicked face, and the cold sweat on his head was dripping down like rain.
There were still palpitations in his pupils, as if he had had some nightmare, he was short of breath, and he was constantly wheezing like a bellows, looking frightened.
"Brother Dao... Brother Dao..."
Seeing Xue Wuji's appearance, Ying Xuan couldn't help but call softly, and at the same time, he couldn't help but guess in his heart, could it be that not only did he fall into a nightmare, but Xue Wuxian also fell into a nightmare?
"Whew..."
Xue Wuxian was still panting heavily, and after seeing the surrounding scenery clearly, Ying Xuan obviously observed the horror in Xue Wuji's eyes and couldn't help but relax, and his whole body stepped across, as if he was a little weak.
Ying Xuan waited quietly, and there was no joke Xue Wuxi, when he just woke up, I was afraid that he was even more unbearable than him, and he didn't know what happened in the earth lake, why the two of them both entered the nightmare, and the fear in their hearts was infinitely magnified.
Let Brother Dao see and laugh. ā
After Xue Wuxian slowly calmed down, he looked at Ying Xuan who was standing beside him, and couldn't help but show a wry smile, as if he was a little ashamed.
"Didn't we sink into the lake?"
As soon as his heart relaxed, Xue Wuxian also thought of the same problem as Ying Xuan, seeing Ying Xuan's finger pointing to the sky, Xue Wuxian couldn't help but look up in surprise, and when he saw the deep darkness, he had a flash of inspiration, and he also had some sudden realization.
"When you arrive at the underground palace, you do not cross the earth lake, but enter from the bottom of the earth lake. ā
Xue Wuxian figured out this section, and he was also a little excited, looking at the main hall, recalling the records in the ancient books, his eyes couldn't help but burst into a burst of light, sure that this place was undoubtedly.
"Brother Dao, we have arrived. ā
There was some excitement in Xue Wuxi's words, and his shoulders trembled faintly, which showed the churning of emotions in his heart.
"Oh?"
Ying Xuan frowned a little, the hall was empty, there was nothing, only the lifelike demon beasts carved on the stone wall, in addition, not to mention the corridor and the gate, not even a pillar could be seen.
"Brother Dao, don't be anxious. ā
Xue Wuxian looked confident, and after recognizing this place, combined with the records in ancient books, he already had a bottom in his heart.
At this time, he took out a seal again, and there was a layer of white mist on the seal, which was hazy and hazy, and could not be seen clearly, and could only be vaguely identified. (To be continued.) )
