Lu Jing sat in the Hanmo Academy, looking down at the snow drinking knife in front of him.

The silver-white blade and silver handle make it seem that the iron used to forge this knife is tempered, and it looks like a snowflake is embedded in it under the light of the sky, which is quite beautiful.

The famous sword of the five grades, even in this Taixuanjing, is actually not very common.

The treasures in the hands of the older generation of mansion owners and generals are not mentioned for the time being, and most of the famous swords treasured by many officials of the current dynasty are no more than five grades.

As for the younger generation of Dafu, it is even rarer to wear a five-grade famous knife on the waist.

The previous generations of the Jiuhu Lu family had a good business and accumulated a big family business, and even the second assistant of the Taishu Pavilion was prosperous on the ten miles of Changning Street, and when it came to abundant assets, it was not as good as the Jiuhu Lu family.

But even so, what Lu Feng, the second young master of the Fuzhong Mansion, has, is nothing more than a six-grade treasure knife.

Although there are indeed treasures of five products in the mansion, Lu Feng is young after all, and he has never been an official in the court, so he has never given it to him.

It can be seen that the Wupin Treasure Sword is actually extremely precious, and often only the clan mansion with an extremely thick background can support its young people to have such treasures.

Lu Jing snatched this snow drinking knife from Nan Xuehu at that time, but he just wanted to teach Nan Xuehu a lesson.

But I never thought that after that, the snow knife really played a great role.

At the very least, if he didn't have the sharpness of the Snow Drinking Knife, he only relied on his horseman's anger and blood, as well as his own qi and blood in the furnace realm at that time.

I'm afraid that I won't be able to kill the great monk who is protected by the essence blood of a high monk with one sword.

At this moment, Lu Jing put this snow drinking knife on his lap, closed his eyes, and felt the spring thunder knife intent.

The sword intent is like thunder, flowing wantonly on this snow drinking knife.

The blade of the snow drinking knife is wide, although it is very sharp, weighing 300 catties.

The weight of three hundred catties is nothing for a martial arts monk, and Lu Jing is holding a three-hundred-pound snow drinking knife, which can only be described lightly.

But the spring thunder knife intent pays attention to a vigorous spirit, surging might, and overwhelms the world.

The snow drinking knife circulates qi and blood, but it is like snowflakes falling down, endlessly, but it is not earth-shattering.

For the Qi and Blood bonus, although the amplitude is extremely high, it does not come suddenly, but slowly increases, getting stronger and stronger.

This is also contrary to the intention of the Spring Thunder Knife.

It's just that Lu Jing doesn't have a good knife in his hand now, and he can only use the Snow Drinking Knife to hone the Spring Thunder Sword Intent.

Lu Jingshi has never learned any knife skills until now.

However, it was only through Mr. Nine's slashing of the green mountains, the fusion of the thunder qi, and the fusion of his own righteous qi like a rainbow that he cultivated such a special martial arts spirit.

So in a certain situation, Lu Jing can only make one knife with a knife.

If someone else is close, with this spring thunder sword intent, and with the angry life of the horseman, it can really be regarded as a means to save Lu Jing's life.

For the current Lu Jing, this knife can be called strong, and the knife means that the winner is divided, and the life and death are decided.

"Your sword intent is indeed breathtaking."

Guan Changsheng was sitting not far away drinking, his face was already slightly red, but at the moment it became red because of drinking strong wine.

It is rare to have such a good sun today, Guan Changsheng and Lu Jing came to the pool where Mr. Nine washed his sword before, Lu Jing practiced sword intent, and Guan Changsheng sat and drank, fiddling with the clear water in the pool.

Lu Jing didn't answer, and the knife intent on the snow drinking knife flowed for a long time and stopped, and then he raised his head and looked at Guan Changsheng.

"Mr. Changsheng, that day I held the green mountain in my hand, standing by this pool of water, I felt that there was a lot of knife intent in it, some of the sword intent was originally silent, but it began to tremble because of your arrival."

Lu Jing's eyes were a little curious: "Mr. Changsheng once told me before that when you were in the Donghe Kingdom, you once killed Taishou with a knife in a rage, and I didn't think much about it at that time.

Now that I think about it, Taishou is the head of a county in Donghe Country, Mr. can kill Taishou alone, Donghe Country has been repeatedly encircled and suppressed, Mr. Guan still went out of Donghe Country and entered Northern Qin, and the Northern Qin Dadu led the soldiers under his command, and never trained you into a puppet, and Mr. came out of Northern Qin to Dafu Taixuanjing.

Thinking about it like this, Mr. Cultivation is bound to be extraordinary. ”

Supervisor

Sheng stroked his long hair with his right hand, and said heroically: "In today's world and world, if you don't have three points to learn, how can you break through the world?"

Lu Jing didn't ask much, but sighed: "The book building is indeed called the hidden dragon and crouching tiger." ”

"There are naturally countless capable people in the world, and all kinds of avenues have leaders, Lu Jing, your spring thunder sword intent is promising."

Guan Changsheng poured a glass of wine and flicked his fingers gently.

The wine glass was engulfed by the drumming qi and blood, and it came back steadily and landed in front of Lu Jing.

Not even a drop of wine was spilled in the glass.

He added, "If you can always be refined, maybe one day in the future, you can also ask the heavens with a knife and ask this thief why it doesn't rain." ”

When Lu Jing heard Guan Changsheng's words, he couldn't help asking, "In the past, could someone ask the sky with a knife?"

Guan Changsheng smiled and said: "The way of the sword is the glorious and righteous way in this world, and you can be the leader with the sword, but the world is vast, but you can also get it."

A long time ago, there was a sword leader who raised his sword to ask the sky, the sword intent moved the stars, the stars roared together, and there was a cloud and mist accumulation, and it rained heavily. ”

Lu Jing raised his eyebrows slightly: "I don't know the name of this senior?"

Guan Changsheng shook his head lightly: "The deceased is gone, his past exploits have turned into ashes, and the treasure knife in his hand has been broken. ”

"After a long time, as he said, even I forgot his name."

Lu Jing was a little surprised, but Guan Changsheng on the side smiled and said, "But I still remember his knife, it was called General Bahu, so I still remember it now."

The people who were the leader of the sword path also called the deceased general Bahu. ”

"General Bahu? It's a strange name. ”

Lu Jing thought so in his heart.

"There is no such mystery as the current kendo leader, he is the Confucian student who has lost three thousand miles of sword qi."

Guan Changsheng's gaze fell on the snow drinking knife, and there was some hesitation in his tone: "I don't know if there will be one more sword double champion in this world in the future."

Now that you are still young, you have already cultivated a heroic spirit, and you have cultivated a spring thunder spirit, coupled with your sword intent to help the light, the future achievements are indeed expected. ”

"Just like many people in Taixuanjing now call you a masterpiece of calligraphy and painting."

Guan Changsheng's tone was a little sighing.

Lu Jing's eyes were a little stunned: "Calligraphy and painting...... Double Best?"

Guan Changsheng drank heroically, and then smiled sideways: "Don't you know? You drew a real dragon in the Flower Pavilion, and the real dragon was suspended in the clouds, and this scene had already spread all over Taixuanjing.

Nowadays, many people say that there is a young gentleman in the library, and the strokes are real dragons, and he can go to the clouds. ”

In the past few days, Lu Jing has not participated in any literary meetings, nor has he been invited to be a guest, and he only cares about reading and resting every day.

In addition to the Taixuan Palace, the Book Building, and Yanglu Street, I rarely go to other places.

"It's no wonder that these days, Qingyue has even said a few times that there are a lot more greetings and invitations sent to the door."

Lu Jing thought so in his heart.

Guan Changsheng reminded again: "Your knife is not suitable for the Spring Thunder Sword Intent, if you want to exert the extraordinary power of this martial arts spirit, you have to change to a suitable knife." ”

Lu Jing bowed his head slightly, but said with a smile: "This knife is pawned by a familiar person here, not my knife."

And...... Famous swords are priceless, and it is not easy to find a good knife. ”

Guan Changsheng nodded first, and then slowly shook his head: "There are not many famous swords, swords, and treasures in the world, and most of them are controlled by the mansions of wealthy families and the imperial court.

Even the vast majority of those extremely famous craftsmen have been attached to the imperial court.

I know your temperament, if you want to get a good knife, it is not difficult, but the difficult thing is not to owe others. ”

When Guan Changsheng said this, his eyes immediately moved, leaned over, and said: "Five days later, it will be the pre-palace test, you are the second-floor gentleman of the library, if you want to participate in the pre-palace test, you only need to go to the Taishu Pavilion to add your name to the list."

You have already heard that the question in front of the palace is a pair of swords, called Calling Wind and Calling Rain.

Wouldn't it be better if you had these two swords?"

Lu Jing smiled casually and didn't say much

。

The pre-palace test is a bit far away for ordinary people.

But for many big mansions and officials in Taixuanjing, it is a first-class event.

Early tomorrow morning, the Taishu Pavilion will be opened in front of the list, only the court officials above the three grades can recommend candidates, and the recommended person can participate in the pre-palace test.

And Guan Changsheng's interest seems to be only on the two swords that call for wind and rain.

"The pre-palace examination is different from the imperial examination, and after winning the victory, you can also express your vision to the holy monarch.

If Mr. Lu Jing went to participate in the pre-palace test, took the two treasures of Calling the Wind and Calling the Rain and continued to go back to the study building to teach, it would be an interesting thing, and I can also see how these two treasures from the Yang Tribulation Sea are different from those cast in my world. ”

Guan Changsheng's eyes flashed, looking at Lu Jing, and there was some encouragement in his tone.

Unexpectedly, Lu Jing heard Guan Changsheng's words, but nodded slowly: "If I can get the Wind Calling Sword or the Rain Calling Sword, I will bring it over to Mr. ”

When Guan Changsheng heard these words, he couldn't help but be stunned, and immediately put down the wine jug in his hand: "Do you really want to add a name to the list tomorrow?"

Lu nodded, thought about it again, and said with a smile: "In Taixuanjing, there are always many unsatisfactory ones.

If you can carry the treasures given by Emperor Chongtian on your waist, and if you can hold some authority, you may not be so passive, and you will not be assassinated repeatedly. ”

Guan Changsheng was silent for a few breaths, then took out a new cup and poured wine for Lu Jing.

"Lu Jing, I'm much older than you, but I think that I can write that righteous and righteous essay at such an age, and I can raise Haoran Qi, you are like me in your heart, and you have some ambitions in this world, and it is because of this that I will invite you to drink many times.

Now that we are all teaching in this Hanmo Academy, we also have the friendship of colleagues, if you encounter problems in the future, you can tell me. ”

Guan Changsheng's wine glass was raised to Lu Jing, he drank it all, and said casually: "I have some reputation in the Donghe Kingdom, if there is no army in the country to form a battle formation to kill me, I still want to go to Kyoto in the Donghe Country, ask the walking dead on the throne, and ask him how he manages the bureaucrats with wine bags and rice bags!"

Now that I have come to the study building, I have cultivated my self-cultivation, and my spirit is much calmer, but I can still draw a knife occasionally. ”

Lu Jing heard Guan Changsheng's words, and also drank the green plum wine in the cup.

For some reason, he suddenly remembered the letter from Princess Si Wanyu of Chong'an.

"When people get along with each other, they can't just look at utilitarianism, but occasionally have affection in it."

Lu Jing thought so in his heart, so he didn't refuse, just smiled and nodded.

……

Taishu Pavilion is located at the end of Qingyun Street.

It is very close to the Taixuan Palace, the blue bricks and ink tiles are matched with the towering courtyard wall, and on the plaque at the bottom of the black jade enclosure, the holy monarch lightly inscribed the four words "Taishu of the country", which makes this vast Taishu Pavilion building complex appear extremely solemn.

On weekdays, except for the ministers and many officials, there are actually very few people who come here to hang out.

At the intersection of Qingyun Street, there are often soldiers sent by the Qianxian Army to guard it, and I don't know how many big Fu Xuanyi are hidden around.

But in front of the Taishu Pavilion on Qingyun Street today, it is quite different.

Many boys and girls came by sedan chair and horseback, and got off the sedan chair at the entrance of Qingyun Street, walked into Qingyun Street, and came to the front of the Taishu Pavilion.

The reason is that at this moment, in front of the Taishu Pavilion, a list has already been posted.

On the list, there are several names on the list, and there is a sprinkling text on it.

These boys and girls came to Qingyun Street to see the list of posts.

Some of the princesses of the mansion came in person, but more of the mansions did send their subordinates to come.

All of a sudden, the Taishu Pavilion list was densely packed with heads, many people looked around, and many people came with paper and pencils, but they turned their heads and found that this was tested by the palace, but now there are not many names on the list.

Looking closely, there were only a dozen people.

But the reputation of these more than ten people is heavier than the other.

The son of the champion general, Xu Xingzhi, who holds a knife in one hand and can move the world with his fist.

When the Chaosu Xuanjun held the star general Ye Sheyu.

Shaozhuguo Li Guanlong's fourth brother Li Zhiyun.

The one from the Chu family is from

Nanzhao's young guest Qing crossed the river.

Qinglongjun, the youngest of the four guests under the prince's command!

……

These names are extremely weighty, even in Taixuanjing, which is full of talents.

Especially Xu Xingzhi, the son of the champion general!

It was not until this moment that the people of Xuandu knew that this martial arts Tianjiao, who had been at the border for a long time and was known as a sword and fist by the world, was going to participate in the pre-palace test!

Even Xu Xingzhi may have quietly entered Taixuanjing.

For a while, many of the children of the Great Mansion couldn't help but look at each other.

Because most of the people who participated in this pre-palace test have already achieved fame!

Xu Xingzhi fought with his father, and he had a lot of military exploits, and I don't know how many Northern Qin soldiers died in his world-famous evil sword.

Ye Sheyu was born in a poor family, but now he leads an army, although there is the shadow of the eldest princess who is far away in the Western Regions, but the star general is not in vain.

Li Zhiyun is the fourth brother of Li Guanlong of Shaozhu Kingdom, although Li Zhiyun rarely goes out of the house on weekdays and is not famous in Taixuanjing, but as long as others have heard of Li Guanlong's name, they will never underestimate him!

As for the others, the same is true.

"There are three tests in front of the palace, the first two tests are martial arts and the second test of Yuanshen, and the literary test will be postponed for five days.

This year, it seems that there are very few participants in the second test of the martial arts yuanshen, but in fact, one of them can be pulled out at random, and in previous years, it can be easily won in front of the palace. ”

There are children of the great mansion talking to each other.

These young ladies are in the center of Taixuanjing, so they naturally know that this pre-palace test has another meaning.

That is the first dispute between the crown prince and the seventh prince!

Before January, Taixuan Jingzhong was still as calm as a pool of water.

The doomed dispute between the crown prince and the seventh prince is still little known.

But in just one month, the wind in Taixuanjing gradually rose, and the seven princes were about to open the mansion, and the prince of the Chu family even went to the prince's mansion that had been built in person and planted a big tree in person.

The Holy Monarch gave marriage, and Li Wuhuang of the Li family in Xuandu was about to marry the Seventh Prince.

The fame of the Seven Princes has spread all over Taixuanjing, but since this month, the rumors of Taixuanjing have become more and more prosperous, and it is said that the Seven Princes have thought about it for nine years, but they have read through the articles of the world, know the knowledge of various families, and cultivate a body of Zhaoxing Yuanshen......

These messages do not look strange.

But if you piece together all this information, what can be guessed in it becomes more and more amazing.

Later, rumors began to rise.

It is said that the crown prince and the seventh prince will try to see each other's edges in front of the palace...... It seems that the Taixuan Palace has also acquiesced.

All these ......

In the five-year pre-palace test, the third-grade officials of the court rarely recommend others.

This also caused this round of pre-palace examinations, and only a dozen people participated.

But the list on today's list is unexpected.

Unexpectedly, even Xu Xingzhi, Ye Sheyu and other already successful characters would appear on the list.

"Several of their names are on the list, and I don't think there will be any other names added today."

The list is displayed before the Taishu Pavilion.

Some officials who have not yet recommended talents to the Taishu Pavilion can still enter the Taishu Pavilion today and add the names of the people who participated in the examination.

But at this time......

At the end of the crowd on Qingyun Street, there was a sudden commotion.

Everyone turned to look, but saw a beautiful sword girl dressed in blue, walking slowly.

When the girl came, everyone got out of the way, as if there was a sudden storm brewing in her, bounce them away.

At first, the people in the outer mansion didn't know who this woman was, but they had seen the nobleman for a long time, and they also knew that the temperament of this woman in front of them was extraordinary, which was by no means ordinary.

And the young ladies in front of the Taishu Pavilion, some people only think about who she is.

□□ legend, everyone's faces showed some surprise!

"Nanguo Mansion...... Nanhe rain! ”

"There are even people in the Nanguo Mansion who participate in the pre-palace test!"

"Nanhe Yu is the Xuandu Sword Dao Tianjiao, not to mention that her cultivation is good, she also has a feather sword heart, if she wants to participate in the pre-palace test with the theme of the rain summoning sword, wouldn't that rain summoning sword belong to her?"

"I can't say for sure, Nan Heyu's kendo talent is naturally excellent, but she is too young, and Ye Sheyu and Xu Xingzhi's cultivation are a few years older than her."

"It should be the fourth son of the Li family who is under pressure, but I don't know how the cultivation and kendo of the fourth son of the Li family are."

Everyone speculated......

"Nan Heyu came to Taishu Pavilion, maybe he didn't come to try it out in front of the palace.

Why did the Nanguo Mansion intervene in this palace test? This is unwise. ”

Others are very confused.

Nan Heyu's figure appeared on Qingyun Street.

She looked at her with a determined gaze and walked step by step.

At this moment, her steps were steady and slow, but she seemed to have made up her mind and went straight towards the Taishu Pavilion.

Everyone got out of the way, letting Nan Heyu go all the way to the front of the Taishu Pavilion.

In front of the Taishu Pavilion, several officials of the Taishu Pavilion also looked at Nan Heyu, and some people hurriedly turned around and entered the Taishu Pavilion, and then returned, shaking their heads at the other officials.

"Miss He Yu, Taishu Pavilion has not received a recommendation, I don't know if Miss is here, what is the so-called matter?"

An old official saluted Nan Heyu and asked.

The rest of the people's eyes fell on Nan Heyu.

But Nan He Yu didn't answer, but looked into the distance and said softly: "He Yu decided to give it a try." ”

She whispered the words.

In an instant, a red glow suddenly appeared in the distance.

A silver dove flew through the void with a letter in its mouth, harnessing the flames.

This strange pigeon flew extremely fast, and even turned into a silver light, flew into the Taishu Pavilion and disappeared.

Not much.

Someone in the Taishu Pavilion hurriedly walked out and whispered a few words like the old official.

The old official looked stunned, and immediately said in a loud voice: "Nanhe Yu was recommended by Dazhuguo, and he had to go to the palace for the first test. ”

After he finished his loud voice, he ignored the uproar of the crowd, turned around, picked up the pen and ink, and added a line of names to the list. "Nanhe rain!"

Nan Heyu saw her name appear on the list, and her eyes became more and more determined.

"Since you want to hone your sword intent, since you want to take a look at the sword path of the immortals, you can't hesitate any longer.

This can refine my heart. ”

Nan Heyu was still silent, turned around and walked out of the crowd again.

Everyone got out of the way one after another, and some people who knew the inside story originally thought that the Nanguo Mansion must have defected to the crown prince or the seventh prince. Suddenly, I remembered that Nan Heyu was recommended by Dazhu Guo, not Nanguo Mansion, and there may be inside information.

Nan Heyu walked down the street like this, heading towards the Nanguo Mansion.

There must be a harsh rebuke waiting for her in the Nanguo Mansion, but at this moment, she doesn't care.

"It's not terrible to offend a few people and do a few things wrong."

"If you don't refine my qi, how can you dare to pursue the truth of the world?"

Nan Heyu thought so in his heart.

"Are you taking the wrong medicine?"

Just then, a voice came.

Nan Heyu didn't turn around, so he knew whose voice it was.

The star-holding general with the white star mask stepped out in a few steps, and he had already come to Nan Heyu's side.

She frowned and looked at Nan Heyu.

Nan Heyu shook his head and said, "This matter only represents me, and has nothing to do with the Nanguo Mansion." ”

"This matter will anger the crown prince and the seventh prince." Ye Sheyu frowned and said, "Do you want to be an official?" Or do you want to get two third-grade treasures?

You have Qianxiushui, and that sword can still enter your eyes?"

Nan Heyu understood that Ye Sheyu didn't know the secret of the two swords that called the wind and the rain, but he didn't explain anything.

Ye Sheyu looked at Nan Heyu's silent appearance, and was a little annoyed: "You are still as tough as when you were a child." ”

After saying this, Ye Sheyu didn't say much, but walked side by side with Nan Heyu: "It's okay, even if that sword falls into your hands, it is better than falling into the hands of Li Zhiyun." ”

"I think there is no one else in this Xuanjing who is so bold except for you."

Ye Sheyu's words did not fall.

Suddenly, Nan Heyu suddenly stopped and frowned.

Leaf fish

Follow Nan Heyu's gaze.

But I saw that on this Qingyun Street, Lu Jing, who was dressed in white, wore a sandalwood sword on his waist, and walked step by step.

"Lu Jing?"

Ye Sheyu frowned: "Where is he going?"

Nan Heyu turned his head to look at Ye Sheyu: "Since you have come to this Qingyun Street, where can you go?"

Ye Sheyu's face under the mask was stunned, and he immediately shook his head and said: "There are still many big mansions on Qingyun Street, it is said that Mr. Lu Jing is still friendly with Lord Shoufu, maybe he is going to Lord Shoufu's mansion to ......."

"It's just that Shousuke-sama's mansion is clearly in front."
