The day after Huang Wenmang left, Yan Longyu and the others also left Osmanthus Town and continued to travel south.

In order to thoroughly find out the "big man" hidden in the Floating and Sinking Pavilion and wanting to secretly prevent the son of the Sword Fairy from going to Shu, the little manager of the Floating and Sinking Pavilion, Mo Fei, did not continue to walk with Yan Longyu and others, and chose to stay in Osmanthus Town.

He didn't know much about the interests of all parties involved behind Yan Longyu, he only knew that this sword immortal orphan played a pivotal role in the current situation in Xishu.

But at the same time, as a peer, I am looking forward to what such a young man with a delicate mind but a simple mind will experience after going to the rich and charming Xishu Jinguan City, and what kind of deeds will he have?

In fact, everything about the teenager will be seen with his own eyes and experienced in the future.

——

On the second day after leaving Osmanthus Town, Yan Longyu and his entourage hurried up and unimpeded, and came to the boundary of Xing'an County, the southernmost part of Qinzhou, before the sun went down.

Xing'an County is different from Hanyuan County, which is fertile and thousands of miles away, and there are mostly vertical and horizontal mountain roads in the territory, and the road is dangerous when it is dark, so for the sake of insurance, under Qin Ruoyang's suggestion, everyone found a dilapidated inn at the foot of the mountain and settled down.

Although there were not many guests in the inn, because Dugu Haoran and Yan Gui were worried that Yan Longyu, who had just stepped into the Three Realms of Forging, would encounter any more dangerous situation, the six of them only needed two rooms.

Yan Longyu, Dugu Haodang, and Yan Gui lived in one room, the old Confucian student Qin Ruoyang and the servant Lao He lived next door to the teenagers, and Hua Fengju slept alone in the carriage outside the inn.

Night.

The interior of the inn is old, with all kinds of noises, and in addition to being hot and humid, it is also full of all kinds of unpleasant smells. Although Dugu Haoran grew up in the mountains, he has been carefully taken care of by Qin Ruoyang since he was a child, and his living environment has never been as simple as this night, so he tossed and turned, but he couldn't sleep.

While Dugu kept turning his head, Yan Longyu, who was sleeping next to him, heard the movement and opened his eyes slightly squinted, "Dugu, it's a big night, why don't you sleep!" ”

In the dark, Dugu Haolang touched the saber beside him and sat up straight, "Long Yu, I don't know if you heard it, there have been footsteps outside the door, if I heard it correctly, it should have started from the gentleman next door, like Lao He's." ”

"You must be dreaming, and I often confuse dreams with reality." Yan Longyu also rubbed his eyes and sat up straight, as if he hadn't woken up yet, and said in a daze.

"Since you're awake, go out with me."

"Oh... What do you say? ”

Before Yan Longyu could react, he was dragged off the bed by Dugu's arm, and walked towards the door in a daze.

The two first went to Mr. Qin's room next door, and when they walked to the door, they found that the door was hidden, and after pushing the door in, it was empty, and there was a letter on the table, the handwriting was not yet dry, but in the dark, the two could not see what was written on it.

Yan Longyu immediately returned to his senses, and wondered: "It's a big night, Mr. is not in the room, where will he go?" ”

Dugu Haoran picked up the letter and thought: "With Lao He here, Mr. will not have an accident, if I guess correctly, Mr. wants to say goodbye." ”

Yan Longyu suddenly remembered what Qin Ruoyang said, "When you enter that Xing'an County, it will be the time when Lao He and I are separated from you."

Thinking of this, the two of them turned around at the same time, spread their legs, ignored the darkness, and ran towards the outside of the inn.

Next to the stable outside the inn, it was dim, only Hua Fengju turned his back to the inn, looked at the winding mountain road in the distance, beside him, the only three remaining jujube red strong horses neighed from time to time, and only one of the two carriages parked here.

Hearing the two teenagers running out of the inn, Hua Fengju turned his back to the two of them and didn't turn around, "Your Mr. Qin said that he has lived all his life, and he is not afraid of death, but he is afraid of life and separation, and he can't bear the scene of separation from you, so he left without saying a word," the middle-aged man smiled, "If you want me to say, his old man is to die to save face and suffer the guilt, and he will find himself guilty." ”

The two teenagers unfolded the letter left for them by the husband in the moonlight, and their eyes couldn't help but redden.

In the letter, the old man said:

"I have finished walking with you on the road that I should accompany you, and now I will say goodbye and never see each other again.

Look at the young man

There is always a breeze in front of you, and you are not blinded by the vulgar;

Always hold the rules in your hands, and do not follow the ugly and evil;

Always have the truth in your heart, and do not bow your knees to troubled times.

Wu Zhaoli, the fifteenth year of Chunfeng, mid-autumn.

Gift from Mr. Wentian. ”

……

The moon is in the sky, and the mountain breeze is bone-chilling.

The servant Lao He galloped on his horse and galloped on the winding mountain road.

In the carriage, Emperor Dahuan Qin Ruoyang sat cross-legged, his tall body swaying from side to side with the bumps of the carriage, suddenly, the old man felt a burst of sweetness in his throat, and after a heart-rending cough covering his face, the old man hung down his hands weakly, and between his fingers, bright red blood oozed out.

"Lao He, hurry up, I'm afraid I'm running out of time."

Hearing the weak voice of his old friend, Helan Xun's brows tightened, and the hand holding the reins of the horse couldn't help but increase a little bit of strength, he was the body of a martial arts immortal, not to mention that he still had half a jiazi's time to squander, but his old friend Qin Ruoyang was just a sick mortal scholar, life and death were fateful, wealth was in the sky, and the limit was not far away!

Sitting in the carriage, Qin Ruoyang, who was already old, couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts, he first thought of Yan Longyu and Dugu Haodang, two children with full personalities, and in a trance, he seemed to remember those things when he was young......

Exactly seventy years ago, the Son of Heaven of the Wuzhao Dynasty was not Emperor Chunfeng or Emperor Shenwu, but the grandfather of Emperor Chunfeng, the grandfather of Emperor Shenwu, and Emperor Jingqing.

In the spring of the sixth year of Jingqing, the dust of the world's big examination settled, and Emperor Jingqing issued an order on March 15, on the top of the Jinluan Palace, to confer official positions on the six people who tried the first class in the middle hall.

Qin Ruoyang, who was only fourteen years old at the time, ranked second among these six people, still before the three of Tanhua.

The whole country was extremely shocked by such a fourteen-year-old child, when other people's children were fourteen years old and couldn't even read all the words, this child named Qin Ruoyang was already able to wear red flowers and step into the Jinluan Palace to meet the Son of Heaven, "Giving birth to a child should be like Qin Ruoyang", this sentence swept the entire Yuhua Capital for a while.

But while some people envy this child, some people are jealous of him and even slander him.

I don't know when and where, rumors suddenly spread in the market of Yuhua City, such as taking the exam, carrying cheat sheets, and even bribing examiners, although the rumors are self-defeating, they still leave many stains on the name Qin Ruoyang.

On the day of the official position, there were many people in the court who had bad intentions towards this genius young man, sneered at him, and spoke to each other. If it was just these, Qin Ruoyang could barely endure it, but what happened next made this genius young man laugh sarcastically at the Wuzhao Jinluan Palace, and turned around and left angrily.

Just after reading the edict of canonization, except for Qin Ruoyang, the five first-class students of the current dynasty seemed to collude, and at the same time knelt on the ground with a plop, they played Emperor Jingqing, saying, "I don't despise being an official in the same year as a person who is not worthy of the throne and playing tricks with ghosts and gods", if the emperor does not remove Qin Ruoyang on the spot, the five of them will resign!

Obviously, this is a long-planned frame-up, and it is said that it is a substitute test, but there is no witness; said that it was plagiarized, but there was no physical evidence; said that he bribed the examiner, but he could not find the stolen money and the person who received the money.

Is it because I'm only a fourteen-year-old child that I make you pedantic scholars who have studied hard and boiled their beards feel shameless and ashamed?

In this regard, Qin Ruoyang, who was dressed in red and flowers, did not give any explanation, he used his immature and arrogant and cold face to sneer around the court, but found that there was nothing to see on this Jinluan Hall except for the ignorant and ugly greasy faces.

The child lost his soul, laughed stupidly, turned around and ran out of the hall, truly like an innocent child. stunned Emperor Jingqing and the "Manchu Dynasty Civil and Military", and let him look up to the sky and laugh and go out!

A few days later, the child named Qin Ruoyang disappeared into the Yuhua capital like a flash in the pan, some people said that the child went crazy and drowned in a lake, and some people said that he saw the child leave the capital overnight and go northwest.

After the child was dismissed, one of the original second-class jinshi, one of whom became a first-class tanhua, and that person's surname was Wang, was from the Longhuai Wang family, who was able to call the wind and rain in the court.

As for Qin Ruoyang, he was just young and ignorant, ignorant of officialdom, and became a victim of someone's interests.

The young official surnamed Ouyang once drunkenly talked about this child named Qin Ruoyang at a meeting, and sighed with tears in his eyes: "It's a pity, it's sad, it's a pity, I'm missing a wonderful young genius in the Central Plains!" ”

In the years that followed, it was not until nearly 20 years that the name Qin Ruoyang was remembered again in Dahuan.

……

On the bumpy mountain road, the sound of ruts is a bit desolate.

Recalling his ridiculous behavior when he was young, the bloodshot eyes of the old Confucian student Qin Ruoyang suddenly glowed, and unconsciously, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked.

There are some things that you will regret if you do it, and if you don't do it, you will regret it.

Mr. Qin Ruoyang laughed slowly, and was in good spirits when he returned to the light, and said outside the car: "Let's go, old man, go down to Jiangnan, enter Yuhua, and help our Dahuan Dugu clan's orthodox lineage!" ”

"Although I am old, my ambition is especially thousands of miles away."
