In the depths of the white clouds, there is a Hanshan Academy.

In a secluded stream somewhere in the mountain behind the academy, there is an inconspicuous cold pool, surrounded by water vapor and shaded by trees.

On the shore, a quiet and idle scholar is reading quietly.

The scholar's name is Li Xiangyi, a member of the upper courtyard of Hanshan Academy, and an official Confucian disciple, but the book he reads in his hand is not a Confucian classic, but an idle book "Tianya Sword Shadow".

This book is about the Fengxue Cliff of the Great Sect of Kendo in Beizhi Gezhou, a female kendo master named Ye Guiren, in order to ascend to the realm of sword immortals, traveled to Beizhi Gezhou, Northeast Great Wilderness Continent, and East Penglai Continent Three continents of interesting anecdotes.

The book not only records the experience of Ye Guiren visiting the ancient times to seek Taoism and asking swords in all directions, but also describes in detail the topography and customs of the mountains and rivers of the three continents, which can be called a treasure book of scenery.

Especially as a sword cultivation travelogue, the words are full of ranger spirit and sword fairy romance, which makes people can't help but be fascinated by it.

Just as he was enjoying it, the branches and leaves of the cypress on the edge of the stream suddenly shook, and a green shadow flew down.

The emerald shadow stopped on the stream rocks and turned into a girl in a green skirt less than a foot tall.

The girl in the emerald skirt is very delicate, although she is small, she has a pair of big shining and smart eyes, and she looks like a porcelain doll carved in pink and jade.

There is also a slender leaf mark on the smooth forehead, which is very cute.

This is a spiritual goblin.

Seeing her appear, Li Xiangyi closed the book and asked with a smile, "Xiao Qian'er, why are you here?" ”

The girl in the green skirt said tenderly: "Senior brother, the second senior brother has not returned from the study tour, the little senior sister is in retreat, and the master is discussing with the other two deputy mountain chiefs. ”

"By the way, I've brought pastries for my brother!"

As she spoke, she wiped her little hand, conjured a saucer from her little skirt, on which were a few pieces of fresh potpourri cake, and sent it over in the air.

Li Xiangyi caught the plate, "Thank you, Xiao Qian'er." ”

"No thanks, hehe."

The girl in the green skirt smiled and waved her little hand, and then her calf kicked and turned into a green light, which fell on the closed "Sword Shadow of the End of the World" and skillfully opened it.

Li Xiangyi ate pastries, and the girl in the green skirt read books, the books were bigger than her, but she read them with relish, and seemed to be very interested in the story of the sword fairy recorded in the book.

After eating the potpourri cake, Li Xiangyun put the plate aside.

Raising her hand and rubbing the little head of the girl in the emerald skirt, she raised her head and rubbed it against his palm, smirked, and then continued to look down at the book.

The little girl was originally an ordinary nameless grass in the back mountain, because she had spiritual roots, and was born on the cold cliff, and she did not break after wind, frost, rain and snow.

Finally, the girl in the green skirt had seen enough, closed the book, and crawled affectionately towards Li Xiangyi.

Li Xiangyi raised his hand to support her, put her on his shoulder, and asked with a smile: "Xiao Qian'er, in the past few days that I have been reading here, have any interesting things happened in the academy?" ”

Xiao Qianjun blinked her eyes and thought about it seriously: "Yes, a lot!" ”

"A lot?"

"Yes, the first thing, the toad gentleman and the carp sage in the mountain chief's courtyard, seven days ago, because of a dispute about who should go to Sister Xianhe first every day, they fought, and they were both flapped by Sister Xianhe's wings and flew to the town under the mountain."

The so-called Toad Gentleman, the Carp Sage, and the Crane Sister are the three pets raised by the mountain chief himself—a toad, a koi, and a white crane.

These three have not been shaped, but they have a very high status in the academy, especially the white crane, which looks like a fairy and can be called a real crane, and it is said that before the establishment of the academy, the mountain chief has raised it.

"The second thing, five days ago, a nerd in the lower courtyard suddenly shouted in the library building during the day, 'I understand, I understand', and then ran to the courtyard to strip and untie his belt, turned into a stone pig, and did not change back after three days."

"Later, a superintendent of the lower courtyard came forward and solved his alien technique, only to know that he was not enlightened, but when he was reading in the library building, he defiled the sage book and was punished by a certain scholar sister in the building."

Li Xiangyi is a little embarrassed, whether it is in the library of the upper courtyard or in the library of the lower courtyard, those book spirit fairies are not very good-tempered.

Even if he goes to borrow books, sometimes he has to be coaxed.

Xiao Qianjun continued to take care of himself: "There is another thing, that is, today, the son of Xie Jiashu of the Upper Court was promoted to the seventh realm in the morning and challenged Mr. Fang, but Mr. Fang didn't hold on for three rounds and was defeated. ”

"Xie Jiashu has broken through to the seventh realm?" A hint of discoloration flashed across Li Xiangyi's face.

Xiao Qianjun nodded: "Well, at the time of the challenge, I was by the master's side, listening to the master and Dong and Liu, the two deputy mountain chiefs, talking, this son of the Xie family has not only been promoted, but also has accumulated a deep foundation in the seven realms. ”

Li Xiangyi's expression was free.

The realm of Confucian cultivation is divided into: Qi cultivation, enlightenment, Tibetan vessels, Gewu, study tours, landscapes, non-letting, cold years, Mandate of Heaven, and Wendao.

This seventh realm is taken from the principle of "not giving in to the teacher".

This is a very important realm for Confucian disciples to seek Taoism and practice.

The head of the Hanshan Academy stipulates that after all Hanshan students are promoted to the Seventh Realm, they must challenge a chair of the Academy of the Seven Realms, and those who win the battle can be regarded as the real Seventh Realm.

The tenth realm of Confucianism is taken from "Hearing the Tao in the morning, and you can die at night".

This realm is the peak of the mountain where ordinary Confucian disciples seek Taoism and practice, and it is the realm of Confucian great masters, and it is the realm of unattainable sages in the top.

"With the charm and demeanor of the Xie family, he should not let Yu Shi go."

"Senior brother, I don't think you're any worse than him."

Li Xiangyun rubbed Xiao Qianjun's soft little head again, and scolded with a smile: "Nonsense, I'm only in the first realm." ”

"Hmph, anyway, I just think that Senior Brother is no worse than Xie Jiashu!"

……

has been by this secluded stream and cold pool, and stayed until the evening, Li Xiangjun stepped on the afterglow of the sunset and led Xiao Qianjun back to the academy.

From the moment he stepped through the gate of the upper courtyard, almost everyone he met cast a slightly strange look at Li Xiangyi.

When he was about to approach his home Tingxi Garden, a tall young man wearing a Confucian crown and a Confucian shirt blocked his way.

There were many people around who stopped to watch the excitement.

"Li Xiangyi!"

Someone shouted.

Li Xiangyi glanced at it, he was not familiar, but he knew a fellow villager who entered the academy in the same class, and his name seemed to be Guo Dark.

"I don't know what Brother Guo has to say?"

"Li Xiangyi, ten years ago, you and Xie Jiashu were both known as the two most outstanding reading seeds in the past hundred years of Hanshan Academy, and today Xie Yufu has soared into the sky in one fell swoop and entered the seventh realm, but you are still in the first realm, don't you feel ashamed?"

"It's to be ashamed." Li Xiangyi nodded.

He admitted it so readily, but Guo Yan choked up, and he had prepared a lot of words to humiliate Li Xiangyi, after all, he was ...... back then

But Li Xiangyan's answer did not follow the rules, leaving him speechless.

At this moment, a handsome figure walked over from a green bamboo path.

"Xie Jiashu, why are you here?" Guo Yan didn't expect that the person he just mentioned would appear at this time.

Xie Jiashu didn't look at him, but walked towards Li Xiangyi.

After approaching, he said, "Brother Update." ”

Li Xiangyi returned the salute: "Brother Yufu." ”

Xie Jiashu, the word Yufu.

Li Xiangyi, the word is updated.

Ten years ago, both of them were only ten years old, but they were introduced to the Upper Courtyard of Hanshan Academy by the two deputy mountain chiefs at the same time, and they are recognized as the two most talented reading seeds since the establishment of the academy in the past 100 years.

Now.

One has been promoted to the seventh realm.

The other has only one realm.

Xie Jiashu is dressed in a white robe, handsome and handsome, and a beautiful son in the world.

Li Xiangyi was dressed in a green shirt, calm and calm, with a hint of laziness.

Xie Jiashu looked at Li Xiangyi, smiled warmly, and then spoke.

"Brother Update, I'm waiting for you in the Tenth Realm."
