Chapter 11 Middle-lifted
Mu Yixing rushed back and immediately told Yue Ting the news. Yue Ting listened carefully to Ru Yizhinuo, and always felt that there was something strange in it. But seeing that Mu Yi was elated, and he was happy to see that he was no longer depressed, he didn't bother to ask.
Since then, Mu Yi has studied hard every day and no longer plays. Yue Ting knew the ambition of his brothers, and he also fought hard and studied hard together. The two of them exchanged articles with each other, but they also had a taste.
It's just that Mu Yi studied harder, the more he didn't grow, and he always regressed a little when he tried every month, so he had to work harder. Yue Ting is constantly improving, and he often points out to him.
Soon it was time for the autumn township exam. All the talents of the academy went to Lingzhou City to take the exam together, and they didn't mention the fatigue of traveling.
When the autumn laurel list came down, Mu Yi and Yue Ting were nowhere on the list again, and Ru Yi was the first in the middle school and Xie Yuan in high school, which scared Mu Yi and Yue Ting.
Yue Ting was okay, he didn't have much hope anyway. But Mu Yi knew that after Ru Yi was raised, he would go to the capital to study, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to see each other in the future, and he would not be able to solve the pain of lovesickness, and he was depressed.
Before Ru Yi entered Beijing, he specially called Mu Yi to encourage him to continue to study hard, and he will definitely be able to Guibang High School in the future. Mu Yi's heart was shocked when he heard this, and he promised to raise people early in the morning and go to the capital to accompany Ru Yi. Ru Yi couldn't cry or laugh when she heard this, and sighed that this stupid boy was really persistent, and he didn't know how long it would take to forget himself.
When Ru Yi rushed to the capital in the winter, Mu Yi suddenly felt uneasy, since Ru Yi can solve the yuan in high school, it must not be difficult to be admitted to the Jinshi. When the title of his gold list is named, I am afraid that he will marry someone else. Although he studied hard, he did not advance but retreated, and when he was depressed, he talked to Yue Ting.
Yue Ting has always been shrewd, and immediately thought of a countermeasure: "Brother, you are not good at liberal arts, but you are very talented in military science. Literature, soldiers, and craftsmen can all participate in the palace examination, and the title of the gold list. Why don't you abandon the text and join the army, and imitate the allusion of Ban Chao's pen from Rong in ancient times, I think it is also a wonderful thing. ”
Mu Yi frowned and smiled bitterly: "I had this plan before, but my parents didn't allow it, I was afraid that the battlefield would be dangerous, and I was afraid that something might happen." The sage said, 'Parents are here, and they are not far away. I was also worried that my parents were too old to be cared for. ”
Yue Ting said disdainfully: "Those who achieve great things are not informal, as the saying goes, 'Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve. Even if you are in a liberal arts high school, you will inevitably be sent to the frontier as an official, so why should you be confined to this thought. If you want to marry Jouy, I'm afraid this is the only way to go. Furthermore, 'Officialdom is like a battlefield.' 'Every year, the officialdom is overturned, and countless people are robbed and killed, and I am afraid that it is not much better than the battlefield. ”
Mu Yi felt a little reasonable when he heard this, and he missed Ru Yi, gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and decided to secretly abandon Wen to join the army. He was also a decisive person, and immediately put aside the Four Books and Five Classics and began to specialize in military science.
Since then, except for going to Old Master Zhao every day to listen to two hours of class, the rest of the time Mu Yi has studied the art of war with Li Zhihe, "Guiguzi", "Sun Tzu's Art of War", "Sima Art of War", etc. Old Master Li was also very satisfied.
"The cold snow and plum are exhausted, and the spring breeze and willows return. Mu Yi studied hard for half a year, and the beginning of spring ushered in great news. Emperor Xia was 60 years old, and he made an exception to open Enke. Originally, this imperial examination was usually held once every three years, but Mu Yi was still worried that Ru Yi would forget him after three years. Now I got my heart.
The Qiufu Township Exam was held far away in Lingzhou City, but Mu Yi was not afraid that his parents would know that he was taking the military examination. However, the two-day exam made him a little dizzy, and it was inevitable that he would feel a little uneasy after he appeared.
On the day of the release of the list, Mu Yi really won the military move, although he only ranked first from the bottom, and there was no hope of becoming an official, but Mu Yi didn't care, he was determined to be on the gold list, and he was qualified to participate in the examination.
After Mu Yi went home and told the truth, Old Man Mu trembled angrily and scolded him. Mu Yi was also quite unconvinced, he felt that he was not a liberal arts material, and he was promoted to military science in order to be a high school student in the future, so he fulfilled his father's wish. The father and son had a discord, and Mu Yi ran away in anger and went to Yue Ting's house to live temporarily.
Mu Yi was moved, but Yue Ting still didn't make the list. He didn't have the heart to be promoted, he just planned to mix in the academy for a few years and go out to be a private school teacher. However, Mu Yi was about to rush to the capital to study, and when he thought of this, the two of them couldn't help but be sad, and they didn't know when they would see each other again.
From the end of the autumn season to the study of the country, there is still a two-month interval in between. After Mu Yi lived in Yue Ting's house, the two of them traveled around without incident, and they lived quite comfortably.
The two of them had always studied in the academy before, and after traveling abroad for more than a month, all they heard were the deeds of the rangers punishing the strong and eliminating the evil, and then they realized that there was another world in this world, and they were quite yearning for it.
The Great Xia Dynasty has a total of Kyushu, Lingzhou is located at the northern end of the Great Xia, since ancient times pirates infested, the folk customs are quite strong, and the rangers have become the style. These rangers are happy to take revenge, disobey the royal law, and although they do not specifically oppose the imperial court, they are difficult to control. Today's emperor has built a powerful army, on the one hand, to clear out the bandits, and on the other hand, to deter the rangers.
On this day, the two traveled to the hometown of the hero Ouyang Chun, and heard the heroic deeds of Ouyang Chun, the "Northern Hero", which was circulated by the locals, and couldn't help but admire.
After listening to Mr. Storyteller's "The Legend of the Northern Heroes", Yue Ting sighed to Mu Yi: "If he can't become a teacher in the future, it's not bad for me to be a ranger." ”
Mu Yi said with a smile: "I have practiced boxing and kicking with Qian Jiaotou for a few days before, you have a white and fat body, what can you do to be a ranger, it is not bad to be a man." ”
Yue Ting pouted and said: "Don't underestimate your brother, if you want Ouyang Daxia to steal the Holy Lazy Dragon, you haven't learned any martial arts, and you still walk like flying, and you climb over the wall to enter the room like entering a no-man's land." A fat body is like a cushion, and it doesn't make a sound when it rolls off the wall. ”
"You don't talk nonsense, you can't smash a hole out of the wall, you can't smash a hole, which kid are you listening to. I've heard that the lazy dragon doesn't have any serious skills, but it's thin and small, and you can't learn it. Mu Yi laughed.
Yue Ting argued: "Cats have cat paths, and dogs have dog paths." Chickens and dogs are useful, let alone me, a big living person. ”
Mu Yi didn't pay attention to Yue Ting's words, but said strangely: "It is said that the hero Ouyang Chun can cross the river with a reed and travel thousands of miles a day." One vertical is more than ten zhang. But I saw that the martial arts taught by the head of the Qian sect were just some physical fighting techniques. The jump is not more than a zhang, and I am afraid that I will be tired to death if I travel fifty miles a day. How can you get to the realm of these rangers. ”
Yue Ting thought for a while and said, "It must have been made up by a storyteller." ”
Mu Yi shook his head and said: "I don't think so, 'I don't see and hear things, but I guess whether they exist or not, but what?'"
Yue Ting nodded and said, "Since that's the case, we won't know if we find a ranger." ”
Mu Yi sighed: "It's not easy to say, the rangers come and go without a trace. It's the local wealthy who have the opportunity to deal with these rangers. ”
"Then when you become a general, you will definitely not worry about not seeing the ranger. Yue Ting said with a smile.
"General?" Mu Yi laughed, "Yes, when I become a general in the future, I'm afraid that there will be no rangers to take refuge." ”
Mu Yue and the others traveled around during the day, and went back to the house to read and chat at night. Just wait for Mu Yi to go to Beijing to study in the beginning of winter.
This night, the two were talking in the back room of Mu Yi's house, and suddenly heard the sound of a fight outside the window, Mu Yi was quite curious, so he wanted to go out and watch.
Yue Ting hurriedly grabbed him, blew out the candle and said, "Don't be afraid of death, if it is a thief, you and I will not survive." With that, he poked a hole in the window paper and looked out. Mu Yi did the same, poked a hole next to him, and looked out with wide eyes.
The two spied on each other for a long time, but they didn't see anything unusual. Mu Yi twisted his sore neck, and complained to Yue Ting: "Where did you learn this trick, you can't see anything, and you poked out two holes in this freshly framed window paper in vain." ”
Yue Ting said with a smile: "Isn't that how storytellers in the city are taught?" ”
The two of them saw that there was no movement outside the house, so they went out and looked around, but there was no one. Yue Ting said: "It is estimated that it is a ranger fight, and it will be thousands of miles away in an instant." ”
Mu Yi took a closer look by the moonlight, but saw that the blood on the ground was mottled, and his heart was sudden, and he hurriedly whispered: "Look at so many blood stains on the ground." ”
Yue Ting looked for the bloodstains, only to realize that there seemed to be a person lying in the corner. The two of them had the courage to go forward to check, but they were a child of twelve or thirteen, with a black suit, a bun on his head, a pair of cloth shoes on his feet, and leggings. Because it was dark, his facial features could not be seen clearly, and there were still four or five sword wounds on his body, and he was bleeding profusely.
Mu Yi said to Yue Ting: "Saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, seeing that this child is younger than the two of us, he should not be a traitor." It is better to carry him to the back room and bandage him to see if he can save his life. ”
Yue Ting also nodded yes, and the two carried the person to the back room, changed out of the bloody clothes, and bandaged the wounds. Mu Yi poured some sugar water again, and the rest could only be left to fate.
