Chapter 224: Overnight at Bishui Pass
Su Wen leaned down on the broad feather back of the Red Flame Bird, feeling the sound of the wind whistling in his ears, and his heart was like an arrow.
For the Sacred Word Continent, Su Wen was just a traveler from another world, and from the moment he opened his eyes, he really existed in this world with the name Su Wen.
So he never had no guesses with Su Yu, nor did he rely on Su Yu for his life, and even he didn't know whether his pity for Su Yu now was pure brother-sister friendship or something else.
At the beginning, the reason why Su Wen regarded Su Yu as his reverse scale was because of a conditioned reflex from his body.
Or to put it more bluntly, that emotion does not belong to him now, but to the original owner of this body.
But slowly, he and her share weal and woe in the old house of the Su family, rely on each other in Lin Huaju, share the bed in the Bingshe of Baicao Courtyard, he has eaten her best mixed sauce noodles, he has seen her beautiful face in her sleep, and he is also used to her waking up every morning to fetch water and dress herself.
For Su Wen, she is not his maid-in-waiting, but a family member.
Su Wen's hands were already stained with the blood of the Xu family, such as Xu Yi, such as Xu Yu, so he was afraid that Xu Huanzhi would hurt his family.
The speed of the Red Flame Bird was naturally faster than Su Wen himself, I don't know how many times, Su Wen and the others set off from the academy at that time, left the border of the Patriotic State through Bishui Pass, and arrived at the periphery of the Lost Swamp, it took nearly half a month.
After that, Su Wen and the others went deep into the Lost Swamp until they entered the Great Fence Array. It also passed away for several days.
But at this time, less than two hours had passed since Su Wen subdued the Red Flame Bird, and he had already seen the exit of the Lost Swamp close in front of him, and he went down at this speed. In less than two days, he will be able to arrive at Hung Ming Academy!
Su Wen looked down at the dense forest farther and farther away, but he never saw any figure at the exit of the Lost Swamp, whether it was the people in Hongming Academy or the literati students of other academies, there was no trace.
After leaving the Lost Swamp, the altitude of the Red Flame Bird's flight increased significantly. In Su Wen's mind, this was probably the instinct of the Red Flame Bird in order to avoid the ears and eyes of the human powerhouse.
After all, the Red Flame Bird is also a kind of demon beast, and hunts demon beasts. Nowadays, it seems to have become the most common thing for people.
Accompanied by this, Su Wen completely lost his vision of the ground, and there was only a faint cloud around him. It looks like a wonderland.
But he wasn't worried that the Red Flame Bird would lose its way because of this. So he simply closed his eyes, sank his mind into Wenhai, and began to observe his changes after breaking the mirror.
First of all, the most intuitive, of course, is the transformation of talent in Wenhai, from orange to apricot yellow, and the eight symbols floating on Wenhai have become more complex and cumbersome.
But this is not the most essential change in Su Wen's sea after he became an attendant.
If you think of the sea of literature in Su Wen as a separate world, there is an ocean in this world. There are reefs, and there are nine stone caves. Eight of them were radiant, but the last one was lifeless and impossible to explore.
Now, in this world, there are suddenly more complex and dense silk threads, like water vapor rising from the sea level, connecting the sea and the sky, and it looks misty.
However, the sky in the sea of literature represents the outside world.
In other words, now the Wenhai in Su Wen has been connected with the outside world!
And that silk thread condensed with talent is like a bridge, communicating Su Wen's Wenhai world and the spirit of heaven and earth!
This is the biggest difference between a scholar and a tribute!
Just as Su Wen sensed when he broke the mirror, every literati who walked on the path of cultivation was closely related to the talent of this heaven and earth, and he could see this world, and the world would naturally see him.
Bai Jianqiu once told Su Wen that the so-called war painting is to paint to heaven and earth, that is, to tell heaven and earth that everyone's thoughts are channeled into heaven and earth, so as to stimulate the power of poetry, calligraphy and painting.
And now Su Wen has more truly realized that not only the war literature, but in fact, the root of the talent in the literati's body also comes from this heaven and earth.
If you have to be more precise, Su Wen believes that it is likely to come from the divine book.
But what exactly is the Book of God?
If you can get the top three in the future Ten Nations Joint Entrance Examination, you will have the qualification to enter the Afang Palace to read the Divine Book, but it is still too far away for Su Wen.
Moreover, Wei Guo has not been a genius in the top three in the clan test for thirty or forty years, and even Wang Yangming has never been a scholar back then, although Su Wen is known as a saint of the human race, but no one can say how far he can go at that time.
When he opened his eyes again, the sky had gradually darkened, and in front of Su Wen's eyes, an incomparably familiar city wall finally appeared.
The last city of the Patriotic Kingdom in the south, Bishui Pass!
From the Lost Swamp to the Patriotic Nation, it took less than a day for the Red Flame Bird to return!
Even Su Wen couldn't help but be impressed by this extreme speed, imagine that if it weren't for him taming the Red Flame Bird by chance, he would probably still be lost in the mud on the periphery of the swamp at this moment!
Su Wen had the heart to continue to hurry, but the Red Flame Bird was a little exhausted, and the serious injury was just recovering, and the Red Flame Bird was able to travel thousands of miles without eating or drinking, which was already the limit of its physical fitness, and Su Wen also knew that he could not be too harsh.
So a man and a bird slowly landed in the air and walked towards the city gate.
When entering the city, Su Wen directly showed the token to which Hongming Academy belonged, but he was not subjected to any trouble, especially the apricot yellow talent and brilliance deliberately exuded by his body, which made the soldiers defending the city even more awe-inspired.
It's just that Su Wen quickly regretted it.
Just swaggering through the market with a valuable monster beast, Su Wen's every move fell in the eyes of people with a heart, and immediately brought trouble to him.
"Friend, I don't know if you can sell this red flame bird?
A scrawny-looking black-faced man stopped in front of Su Wen and made his intentions straight to the point.
Su Wen just glanced at him lightly, and then said categorically: "Not for sale." ”
After that, Su Wen walked around the black-faced man, ready to find an inn to live in, who would have thought that the man would stick up unrelentingly, and said with a smile: "You make a price, the business is always negotiated, don't be busy refusing first, maybe my master's offer will make you excited?"
Su Wen frowned, and said coldly: "This is not business, so there is nothing to talk about, I said, don't sell it." ”
"Friend, it's your first time coming to Bishui Pass, right?
Su Wen took a deep breath and smiled lightly: "This is your master?"
When the black-faced man heard this, he immediately straightened his chest a little straighter, with a hint of arrogance in his eyes, and nodded: "Exactly!"
Su Wen shook his head with a smile, then took out a jade plaque, shook it in front of the black-faced man's eyes, and said, "Then have you heard of the name of my Hongming Academy?"
The black-faced man was stunned for a moment, standing in place, and when he came back to his senses, Su Wen had already walked into the Qingshan Inn in front of him with the Red Flame Bird, and he was never seen again.
The black-faced man turned his head, glared viciously at the onlookers, and said sharply: "What do you see?
The people who had lived in Bishui Pass for a long time seemed to be quite jealous of this name, and they all turned their heads away, and soon dispersed, while the black-faced man stayed outside the door of the Tsing Yi Inn for a while, and only after making sure that Su Wen had moved in, did he leave quietly.
After a short time, his figure appeared outside the barracks outside the city, and he didn't know what to say to the sergeant guarding the camp, but he was allowed to walk in very lightly.
The black-faced man seemed to be quite familiar with the barracks, and he came to a brightly lit tent with ease, and dodged in.
There is a person in the tent who is holding a pen and painting, his body is quite strong, and his expression is not angry and arrogant.
"How's it going?"
The black-faced man whispered, "He doesn't want to sell." ”
"Oh?" Surprisingly, the man didn't get angry, but smiled, "Something interesting, can you identify yourself?"
"Of course, but ......" The black-faced man was a little reluctant to speak.
Say. ”
However, the man claimed to be from Hongming Academy, so he seemed to be a little arrogant. ”
Hearing this, the paintbrush in the hand of the strong man in the tent finally stopped, he frowned slightly, and said suspiciously: "Hongming Academy?
The black-faced man hesitated and said, "He showed a token, but his subordinates didn't see it clearly, but if you think about it, no one dares to pretend to be someone from the academy, right?"
"It's hard to say...... the strong man gently put down the pen in his hand, picked up the towel on the table and wiped his hands, and then said: "Since this is the case, then you might as well invite him here, whether it is true or not, it will naturally be clear at a glance at that time." ”
"If he is impersonating, then Ben Shuai can just take it down, as for the red flame bird, it can be detained as stolen goods, if he is real, then it is naturally not a bad thing to be able to form a friendship with the people in the academy, no matter what, it is always beneficial and harmless to us. ”
The black-faced man said respectfully: "My lord is really wise!"
