Empire's Early Morning 33: Brocade Night Walk
"What are the entrance exams for Qixia Academy?"
Lin Xu also wanted to know more, about the selection of talents in this continent, even if he couldn't enter the Qixia School Palace, it would not be wrong to know more things.
"Entrance exams?"
Xiao Wu groaned and counted his fingers seriously.
Lin Xu and the shopkeeper looked at Xiao Wu quietly.
Especially the look on the shopkeeper's face, he looked at the two young people with interest.
Xiao Wu touched his head, felt that his head was a little big, and showed a bitter melon-like smile: "Overall, the test is more messy,
There are mounted archery, arithmetic, and the historical development of some continents,
The last big question is from the examiner, and it is different every year...
Last year's question seems to be how the people of the Six Kingdoms live in the new dynasty!"
Xiao Wu said with a headache, obviously these exams made this student have a headache, no one likes to read, but the world needs results.
Lin Xu felt a little unbelievable when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Isn't there a cultivation for this?"
Armed force prevailed on the mainland, and the Qin State also swept through the six countries with its hegemonic military strength, and it was very incomprehensible for Lin Xu to do this.
Xiao Wu explained to Lin Xu extremely seriously: "No, the Qixia School Palace was founded by Confucianism.
Some Confucians believe that it is force that is the root cause of the chaos on the mainland for a hundred years.
Those heroes who are only known as justice, relying on their strong strength, have launched wars one after another, and civilians are the biggest victims.
Therefore, cultivating for this item does not add points to it, and it is mainly based on the intention of Confucianism.
However, there are still many masters in the Qixia School Palace, after all, it is to cultivate talents for the Qin State. ”
Lin Xu touched his chin and pondered for a while, Confucianism was still very good at thinking about it, when he was reading books in Beicheng;
Since ancient times, Confucianism has violated the law with literature, and chivalry has violated the ban with martial arts.
These great monks are the source of disputes on the mainland, and in the hundred years of the great monks' lifespan, they have set off wars for their own desires, and the biggest casualties are civilians.
After the fall of the Six Kingdoms, Confucianism was strict with itself, and Confucianism was all over the continents of the Seven Kingdoms in the past, although it was not the school with the largest number of schools of thought, but it was the most active.
Originally, Confucian scholars could be seen in the Seven Kingdoms, but the situation has changed greatly over the years.
Because Confucianism explicitly forbade the people below to participate in unjust wars.
"This Confucianism is really interesting, the head of contemporary Confucianism is really arrogant, hahaha......"
Lin Xu laughed loudly, but after a few seconds, he saw that the shopkeeper and Xiao Wu just looked at him suspiciously, and suddenly stopped, returning to his former calmness.
Looking at the expressions of the two, Lin Xu didn't want to explain the meaning of "tsundere" to them, so he immediately changed the topic, "Eh...... Do you have any room available? I'd like to stay here for a few days. ”
When Xiao Wu heard Lin Xu's words, he said with surprise on his face: "Mr. Lin wants to live here?"
Lin Xu looked at Xiao Wu's little eyes, and heard that the little eyes were very focused, and he didn't know if it was true or fake.
"Yes, stay here for a few days, and we'll talk about that later. ”
Lin Xu doesn't know what to plan now, let's stay in Xianyang for a few days before making plans.
"Okay, I'll go clean up Mr. Lin's room. ”
Xiao Wu said excitedly and trotted all the way upstairs.
Lin Xu stared at Xiao Wu from behind, "Sure enough, it's still a child!"
The shopkeeper nodded sympathetically, and then smiled, "Yes, Xiao Wu will always be a child who doesn't grow up." ”
Lin Xu suddenly remembered something, and said to the shopkeeper: "By the way, what is the full name of the little guy?"
The shopkeeper's face was a little strange at this time, with the expression on his face that wanted to laugh but held back, and after a few seconds of silence, the shopkeeper still opened his mouth and said:
"Wu Shishan!"
"Wu Shishan, Wu Shishan?......... The name of Five-Four-Three?...... Good name. ”
Lin Xu said softly to himself, and now that he finally understood what the shopkeeper meant, Lin Xu's face was also a little weird.
The shopkeeper took Lin Xu's words, "Well, I feel okay." ”
The two stared at each other for a while, and there was silence for a while, and the scene was extremely embarrassing.
Fortunately, Xiao Wu came down from the upstairs at this time, his face was a little flushed, and there were some fine sweat particles on his forehead, obviously the little guy was tired just now.
Before Xiao Wu walked down the stairs, he said to Lin Xu in surprise: "Mr. Lin, the house is cleaned up, the best house among the vacant houses, Chaoyang." ”
"Good, good, good. ”
Lin Xu ended the embarrassing situation, nodded to the shopkeeper, and followed Xiao Wu upstairs.
However, Xiao Wu always felt that Mr. Lin's expression was a little ......... Hmm? I want to laugh but don't dare to laugh, which makes Xiao Wu very strange.
.........
After Xiao Wu left, Lin Xu took a look at the room, overall it was not bad, there were still a few ink paintings in the house, open the window, the street downstairs had a panoramic view, downstairs, Xianyang was also almost dusk, some small merchants and vendors were packing their own things, ready to go home to reunite with their families.
This is Lin Xu's first day in Xianyang.
At night, the noisy street outside the house also quieted down, Lin Xu was meditating and pranayama on the bed, after coming to Xianyang, the originally tight heartstrings calmed down suddenly, and Lin Xu suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
After a few battles, Lin Xu knew the importance of cultivation, and now his biggest thought was to raise his cultivation to the ground level as soon as possible.
It's not as good as the ground level, and it will be an ant after all.
This is Lin Xu's experience in several battles, if he is not promoted to the ground level, he doesn't even have the ability to protect himself, so he can only be beaten passively.
The ground level is a hurdle, the transformation from an ordinary person to a monk, no matter how strong the human level is, it has not broken through the boundaries of ordinary people, only the ground level is the starting point of cultivation, and he has not even stepped into the starting point.
"Whew!"
Lin Xu exhaled slowly, for some reason, his current self can be regarded as reaching the peak of the human level.
But Lin Xu still couldn't touch the threshold of the ground level, which made Lin Xu feel very chaotic and uncomfortable.
There was a sudden sound of footsteps on the roof, and Lin Xu hurriedly got up and stared up at the roof.
"Bang, bang, bang. ”
A few seconds later, more footsteps rang out.
"Don't run!"
A voice scolded, but did not reply, saying that it was too late and that was fast, there was a sound of fighting on Lin Xu's roof again, thunderclaps, which was also mixed with the sound of the ancient bricks of the roof, for a while, it was not annoying.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, a black-robed person fell from above and fell directly into Lin Xu's room.
Lin Xu was greatly annoyed in his heart.
"New side quest?"
Can you still let people rest, Lin Xu slandered in his heart.
Looking at it, this person was wearing a black night suit, which covered his whole body, and only a pair of eyes leaked out, which was similar to the last time he saw him in Beicheng, but he was taller.
The man quickly stood up and looked around in a panic.
At a glance, he noticed Lin Xu beside him, but he glanced at Lin Xu's cultivation with his spiritual power, and he was immediately relieved.
patted his clothes, wiped off the dust on his body, and showed a fierce look in his eyes, and walked towards Lin Xu.
Lin Xu also noticed the killing intent in the eyes of the man in black at this time, and hurriedly prepared for battle.
Suddenly, the roof that was already broken, at this time, several heads poked out, they looked at Lin Xu below, and when they saw that the man in black was intact, one of them quickly jumped down from it and walked towards the man in black with a weapon.
When the man in black saw someone jumping down, he quickly left Lin Xu behind, broke the window and rushed out, and the man who jumped down with the man in black just now saw that the man in black was going to slip away, so he ignored Lin Xu and chased after him.
At this time, several people on the roof also jumped down, one of them was wearing the same clothes as the patrol sergeant during the day, and it should be the person from Shuntianfu in the shopkeeper's mouth.
More people are wearing black clothes, although they are also black, but the clothes of these people are very eye-catching, the clothes are embroidered with mountains, rivers and plants, with Lin Xu's understanding of this continent now, these clothes are more like sacrificial clothes.
Five or six people glanced around, and one of them saw that the man in black did not leave any clues, stared at Lin Xu and said: "Tianji Pavilion acts, tonight's matter must not be mentioned to anyone, all losses tonight will be reported to Shuntian Mansion, and they will deal with it." ”
This person said directly, without waiting for Lin Xu to answer, the conversation was over, the person dressed in Shuntianfu nodded at Lin Xu, and after speaking, several people left in a hurry, without a chance for Lin Xu to speak.
"This time, we must not let him run away, for the bereaved families of the six countries, everyone will be punished!"
"Yes!"
A few words in the air came into Lin Xu's ears.
