Chapter 12 Poetry Is Useless?
“...... How do you know the poems I wrote?" Yang Xiu was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked.
Except for the examiners of Tianshu Pavilion, there were only some people from the Yang clan who saw that poem, and it was written in immortal script, so there should be very few people who could understand it.
"Hehe, you don't have to worry about this, I'll give you money~" The girl in green pursed her lips and smiled and said playfully.
Yang Xiu thought about it, and said in his heart that it was not a big deal anyway, a broken poem could earn five hundred taels, so why not do it?
Taking the silver ticket from the little maid's hand, Yang Xiu carefully hid it close to her body, while the girl in green admired Yang Xiu's strong ink with a focused expression, the corners of her mouth rose, and the two cute little dimples made Yang Xiu couldn't help but look at it twice.
"Listening to my husband, the immortal text is difficult and obscure, but it is not only reflected in the immortal cultivation classics,"
The green-clothed girl's gaze was withdrawn from the rice paper, and she looked up at Yang Xiu, her big black eyes were full of light, and she said: "In ancient times, many great powers were good at poetry, and there were many masterpieces that have been passed down through the ages, and even many poems contain the experience of cultivating immortals, but unfortunately many of them have been lost. Nowadays, people are dedicated to cultivating immortals, and poetry and poetry have become useless things with vassal elegance. ”
Yang Xiu quietly listened to the girl in green talking eloquently, but did not respond. These things have been mentioned in "Xianwen Mengxue", but they are not as sure as the girl said, listening to this meaning, is there any other use for these poems?
The girl in green carefully rolled up the rice paper, held it in her arms, tilted her head to look at Yang Xiu, there was a look of pity on her face, and after a pause, she continued: "Yang Xiu, you really don't want to be my calligraphy master? As long as you want, you are my chief immortal teacher, and your family's life does not have to worry." ”
"Thank you, girl, for your love, but I still like my life now. Yang Xiu thought about it for a moment and politely refused.
At present, Yang Xiu's daily schedule is full, and he can't wait to have a clone technique while cultivating, while making money and preparing to enter the Heavenly Book Pavilion, he has no time to teach at all.
Besides, now that Yang Xiu is carrying the middle-grade exercise "Forging Pulse Formula", coupled with the secret of his own life experience, Yang Xiu doesn't want to be discovered by others because of carelessness and treat it as an experiment.
Seeing Yang Xiu's resolute attitude, the girl in green sighed lightly and had to give up, and after saying goodbye to Yang Xiu, she turned around and walked to the gate of the fence, and then smiled back at Yang Xiu as if she remembered something, "By the way, my name is Xin Xiaoyu, maybe we will have a chance to meet in the future~"
Yang Xiu blinked, watching the figure of the girl in green disappear at the door, and his heart was slightly stunned. Who doesn't want to have more contact with such a temperamental little beauty? It's a pity that she has too many secrets, and it's not the time to be distracted to think about this.

"Young Master Yang, you're here. ”
"Congratulations to Yang Gongzi on the high school heavenly list~ Yang Gongzi is the dragon and phoenix among the people, and he is really a talent!"
The guests in the store greeted Yang Xiu with a smile one after another, and gave salutes one by one, everyone had envy in their eyes, which was a world of difference from the previous attitude of contempt or even ignorance, and Yang Xiu also smiled and returned the salute one by one.
Seeing Yang Xiu enter the door, Shopkeeper Qi hurriedly greeted him with a smile, with a kind face, and he couldn't see the snobbish face before at all.
"Yo, you're here~"
Shopkeeper Qi personally came out from behind the counter, took Yang Xiu's thousand-character text with both hands, and said with a smile: "Yang Gongzi is really punctual, today is still three?"
"Yes. Yang Xiu said with a smile.
Since the last time Shopkeeper Qi came to visit Yang Xiu, the relationship between the two has taken a 180-degree turn. Not only because Yang Xiu's status is not what it used to be, but also because the current Yang Xiu is no longer the pedantic scholar he used to be, and he is much more mature than the original in dealing with human feelings.
Yang Xiu is dedicated to cultivating immortals, and he doesn't want to have too much to do with mortals in the world, but in the future, Huzi and Aunt Liu will still live in Shanyin City, which is what Yang Xiu cares about the most.
Therefore, Yang Xiu did not criticize the shopkeeper Qi and others, but had a kind attitude and did not hold grudges at all. Therefore, Yang Xiu has a good reputation among the wealthy businessmen and gentry, and in just a few days, the rumor that Yang Xiu is magnificent, and he is like a different person than before, has spread among everyone.
Waiting for the shopkeeper Qi to go to the house to get the silver ticket, Yang Xiu closed his eyes on the chair and sat quietly, letting the spiritual power in his body slowly circulate in the meridians, and seizing every bit of time to cultivate. The effect of habit is beyond people's imagination, and Yang Xiu wants to let himself develop a good habit of cherishing every moment of time as soon as possible.
However, soon, Yang Xiu was keenly aware that someone was approaching him, and the other party's deliberately light footsteps did not escape Yang Xiu's keen hearing. Yang Xiu's muscles all over his body couldn't help but tense, and then he suddenly opened his eyes and swept towards the other party.
It was none other than Liu Xian who was close to Yang Xiu. However, Liu Xian didn't expect Yang Xiu's vigilance to be so high, and he was stunned when Yang Xiu stared at him with a round face, and said in his heart that he hadn't seen him for a few days, why was this kid's eyes so scary?
However, Liu Xian quickly reacted and laughed loudly, "Haha, I knew you were here! Why didn't you go to the celebration party held by various wealthy businessmen a few days ago?"
Seeing that it was Liu Xian, Yang Xiucai relaxed, smiled and invited the other party to sit down and talk.
The celebration party that Liu Xian said was a banquet held by various wealthy families in Shanyin City, celebrating the literati in the city, and it was also a good opportunity to get acquainted with each other and make friends.
"I said Yang Xiu, your brother said a lot of bad things about you at the banquet. Liu Xian kindly reminded.
Liu Xian said that it was naturally Yang Shaotian, Yang Xiu has been on guard recently, but the Yang family has not made any big moves, only Yang Shaotian and Sun Wu have made small moves.
Since getting the Pulse Forging Technique, Yang Xiu's horizons have become wider. Yang Xiu didn't care about the villain behavior of these flies and dogs, as long as his skills could be improved as soon as possible, these beam-jumping clowns were not worth mentioning at all.
Liu Xian was very smart, and after showing his kindness through this kind reminder, he clicked to the end, and quickly changed the topic to something else.
At this moment, the shopkeeper Qi in the inner hall walked out of the room with a smile, greeted the two, and then put a long brocade box in Liu Xian's hand, turned around and handed Yang Xiu a silver ticket.
Lowering his head and sweeping the handwriting on the silver ticket, Yang Xiu couldn't help but be stunned: One thousand taels!
This is a sky-high price, almost five or six times higher than the normal price of a thousand-character text! When he saw the thousand-character text in Liu Xian's hand, Yang Xiu suddenly realized that it was the other party who bought his own words, and the weight of this gift was heavy enough.
"Everyone is a man, don't ink, this will be my official gift to you, haha~ In the future, we will have to take care of each other in Tianshu Pavilion~"
Liu Xian next to him opened the brocade box, took out a roll of rice paper, and said boldly while unfolding it: "I have long heard that Yang Xiu has an iron painting silver hook, and the calligraphy is extraordinary, and today I finally have the opportunity to see the real handiwork, and I was always preempted by that ** before, hum!"
Yang Xiu raised his eyebrows, smiled slightly, and didn't refuse Liu Xian's kindness again, but what Liu Xian said**......
As if seeing Yang Xiu's doubts, Liu Xian showed a sly smile, and the two short and thick eyebrows on his round face were raised one by one, and he explained to Yang Xiu with a smile.
Speaking of which, this matter has something to do with Xin Xiaoyu.
Yang Xiu's previous thousand-character essays were all bought by this eldest lady with a mysterious origin, and others didn't dare to rob her, even the thousand-character essays, and now they finally looked forward to this eldest lady, Liu Xian was the first to book Yang Xiu's thousand-character essays at a high price.
"Brother Yang, to tell you the truth, compared to your words, I'm just a dog~"
The chubby Liu Xian was a little familiar, and before he could say a few words, the original literary tone was thrown to the sky, and he began to call Yang Xiu a brother and brother, "No wonder my father asked me to buy your words at any cost, enough for me to copy for a year." ”
In the world of cultivating immortals, the main purpose of practicing calligraphy is to increase the power of the Dao Fu, because the better the Chinese characters are written, the more spiritual power the Dao Fu can induce, and the more powerful it is. And just like poetry, good calligraphy is highly regarded among immortal cultivators and is also a part of the elegance of the literati.
However, most of the time of immortal cultivators is spent on visualization and cultivation, and the time spent practicing calligraphy is very short.
The earth is full of calligraphy by famous masters, and it is much more convenient to practice calligraphy. In this world, there are cognitive disabilities in learning immortal texts, and those who sometimes practice calligraphy are all powerful immortal cultivators who have cultivated to a high level and have a long life, and I am afraid that few people have left a calligraphy for practice.
So after hearing this, Yang Xiu was a little embarrassed and modest, and he seemed very low-key and modest, which made Liu Xian, who didn't know the inside story, even more admired.
After a while, the two left the Duobao Pavilion, and before parting, Liu Xian sneakily put his head in front of Yang Xiu, and whispered cautiously, only then did he and Yang Xiu hug their fists and turn away, leaving Yang Xiu frowning and standing in place thoughtfully.
Just now, Liu Xian instructed Yang Xiu to pay more attention to the Yang clan.
Yang Xiu and the Yang family's grievances and grievances are known to everyone in Shanyin City, the letter girl was here before, the Yang family didn't dare to make a big move, and now that the people have left, the Yang family doesn't have to worry about face and influence at all, Yang Xiu will inevitably be troubled.
Yang Xiu naturally understood this truth, and his desire to increase his strength was even more urgent, so he frowned and hurried back home.
