The various assessments of the Academy are inclined to be elegant and pleasing to the eye, and while marveling at the students, they are also intoxicated by their talents, and they are admired again and again.

Gu Li and a few others also looked around, admiring the examination works of those college students, there were the melodies of the piano and the flute blowing the autumn wind, and there were also empty mountain bird songs, ink and blue paintings, some people frowned and played games, as if they were on the battlefield to fight each other, and some people walked the dragon and snake, the spring and the snow were white, and they wrote strong characters.

Gu Li's eyes were attracted by a landscape map, on which a majestic mountain was painted, like a mountain, there were geese flying over a male pass in the mountain, the desert outside the pass was lonely, and the sun set on the long river. Add a kind of majesty. It can be described as a vast artistic conception.

What surprised Gu Li even more was that the person who painted this picture was actually just a beautiful girl who was sixteen years old, she was thin, wearing an elegant green dress, with a quiet complexion, and she seemed to be a very ordinary girl. Gu Li couldn't figure out how he drew this picture.

Because the scene of the desert and the lonely smoke will not appear in the large river basin of Nanyue at all, only in the bitter cold desert land of Guanbei in the Beiyue countries, there is such a scene.

This woman was born in the Southern Jin Dynasty, but she is copying a pair of Saibei Desert!

"Yanmen Pass!"

Luo Yi stood next to Gu Li and said lightly, that is the first Xiongguan in Beiyue, and it is the first fortress of the Beiyue Kingdoms and even the Middle Earth Dynasty to resist the Northern Barbarians! She was also a little puzzled at the moment, this girl should be copying the famous painting "Yandang Mountain", not what she imagined.

Beiyue and Nanyue, I don't know how much vast land is far away, the gap between water and soil culture and customs is very large, nine percent of the monks in Nanyue can't go there in their whole life, let alone imagine the magnificent scenery of the desert in the north.

But then, this picture was praised by the assessment teacher, and the woman's results were directly judged to be the first place in the painting art exam!

Gu Li learned that this woman's name was Cen Yao.

The monk also noticed the painting, and his complexion changed slightly, revealing a meaningful smile. "Yanmen ......"

In short, this Cen Yao girl was a little peculiar, which left a deep impression on Gu Li. After winning the first place in the painting exam, she got up and left, walking alone along a graceful road.

"Let's take a look?" Gu Li raised a trace of interest, and said to Luo Yi, Luo Yi looked a little displeased, and said coldly: "Miss Ben doesn't want to go." I despised Gu Li in my heart, this is a painting that attracts you?

"Haha, what are you going to do, Brother Gu? Isn't it that I have a crush on other girls, Miss Luoyi is afraid that she will be angry. Mu Shen laughed beside him, he looked at the six roads, and naturally looked at the expressions of the two of them.

"Fuck off!" Gu Li and Luo Yi turned their heads and scolded in unison, Mu Shen smiled and touched his nose.

"Since Little Brother Gu Li is interested, why don't we go and have a look. The monk smiled, and he didn't know if he intended to adjust or why, so he proposed to find the Cen Yao girl.

"I don't have a problem, but I want to see it. Mu Shen took the lead and spread his hands and said with a smile. Gu Li stared at Luo Yi's gaze and nodded awkwardly.

"Then let's go, Miss Ben also wants to see this talented girl who painted "Yandang Mountain". Luo Yi didn't know why, but he responded casually.

Then, a few people acted like thieves and followed the Cen Yao girl in front.

They walked all the way out of the academy and towards the center of the academy, passing by a large lotus pond with the blessing of mana, so that the lotus flower could bloom all year round and not wither in this autumn.

Crossing the lotus pond, they saw the largest mountain in the Nanyang Academy! The plants were flourishing, the mountain was thick, and it was very tall. And there are a lot of people here, most of them are resting, and some people are reading and practicing martial arts.

The mountain roads climbed up from different directions of the academy, and there were many people on the mountain roads, and the Cen Yao girl also walked on a mountain road.

"Cloud Mountain. ”

Mu Shen glanced at it, and it could be seen that at the foot of the mountain, there was a huge stone tablet, engraved with two words that were strong and simple.

Subsequently, the four of them also began to climb the mountain.

The ancient stone steps twist and turn, and both are tall ancient trees, and the sunlight casts in, the shadows of the trees, and sometimes birds chirp, through the gloomy jungle. And this mountain is full of aura, and there is a mixed meaning everywhere, and the momentum of heaven and earth is particularly heavy.

"This mountain is not bad, it is a good place to practice. The monk lightly praised him, and when he reached his realm, the three souls had awakened, and he had reached the realm of heaven, earth and man, and he didn't know how keen he was to perceive all things. It is even possible to integrate itself into nature.

"My Liangyi copper plate is also exciting, it seems that the terrain layout here is very peculiar, it is a spiritual mountain. Mu Shen nodded, and used the lotus platform to communicate the momentum of this place and feel it carefully.

"Every academy has its treasure land, and this Yunshan should be the treasure land of Nanyang Academy, don't be surprised. Luo Yi's eyes were calm, looking straight ahead. Cen Yao's figure was in her sight.

Cen Yao walked in front of her, she already felt the gaze of others, but she didn't look back, she still walked forward calmly, today's art test is over, her grades are very important, and she should go to the mountain to thank the teacher.

And Gu Li and the others didn't expect that Cen Yao was going to visit her teacher on the top of Yunshan.

They followed this road to the Hundred Herb Garden, where the herb elixir was planted in the Cloud Mountain, and saw many crystal spirit grasses, flashing with spiritual light, shining brightly, and pulling the desire in their hearts.

This Hundred Herb Garden is definitely a great treasure of Nanyang Academy, and it is very useful to grow all kinds of elixirs, whether it is used for alchemy or cultivation. You can see that in the garden, there is a pavilion, and in it lives a strong man. He should be the master of the herb garden.

"Such a large elixir garden, if it is converted into silver, I don't know how much, and sure enough, every academy is rich in capital. This Baicao Garden of Nanyang Academy, I am afraid that in the entire Nanyang City, only the elixir garden of the royal family can be compared. Gu Li smacked his lips.

Yun Shen didn't know that there was also a large elixir garden anywhere, but he rarely went there, and the teacher rarely picked it, and it was growing all the time. The longer the elixir lasts, the better the grade, and those who have reached the upper grade or even the Xuan level for more than a thousand years have better medicinal effects. Gu Li guessed that the teacher was cultivating those elixirs, and he was also waiting for their years to increase.

"There's something good in that. ”

After crossing the Hundred Herb Garden and continuing to climb the mountain, you will come to the bottom of the mountain, and there are fewer and fewer academy disciples here. It seems to be a little quiet and peaceful, and there is no dispute with the world.

The white clouds in the sky hang low, which seems to be connected to the cloud mountain, which explains the name "cloud mountain". I saw a bamboo forest growing under a mountain cliff, and there was a quiet thatched house in it, and Cen Yao walked there.

"Could it be that there are still people living here?Who is this Cen Yao girl going to meet?" Luo Yi looked at the clean thatched house, his expression was slightly surprised.

What kind of people can live on this cloud mountain? This is the treasure land of Nanyang Academy!

"Do you still want to go with you?" Mu Shen asked with a smile, if there were really people here who were cultivating, it would be a little reckless and rude for them to rush to disturb them.

At this time, Cen Yao had already stepped into the bamboo forest and walked to the thatched house inside.

At the moment, a few people, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know what to do.

"There is a Confucian living there. The monk said lightly. "The Confucian group of people pay the most attention to the word etiquette, if we rush forward, I am afraid that we will offend him. ”

"Forget it, let's take a look at this cloud mountain, don't offend people rashly. Gu Li shrugged. He also didn't expect this Cen Yao girl to come to such a place, it seemed that she was very familiar with the Confucian in the hut.

"Good. ”

Then, they made it to the top.

The white-clothed Confucian who was reading a book in the thatched hut looked like a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties, with a hint of righteousness and elegance between his eyebrows. Sit at a wooden table in the middle of the hut and sip a cup of tea. Everything outside the house has nothing to do with him.

Hearing Cen Yao's footsteps, the middle-aged Confucian didn't raise his head to know who was coming, and said lightly: "How about the little girl taking the art academy exam today?" The voice was warm and long, making people feel like a spring breeze.

"Well, the student did well in the exam. Cen Yao nodded when she heard this, staring at the reader in front of her with a pair of clear eyes, her expression was as calm as before, but when facing this person, her heart could never be calm.

"Today, I painted the painting "Yandang Mountain" that my teacher once painted, and won the first place in painting. ”

Confucian frowned when he heard this, and the movements in his hands were also stagnant, and he sighed slowly after a long time: "I didn't expect you to draw this picture, it seems that you still haven't forgotten your homeland." ”

Cen Yao was also silent when he heard this, and he didn't know how to answer Confucius's words, and finally said a little hesitantly: "After all, that's where I grew up, and for so many years, I have always known that I am not from this Southern Jin Kingdom, but the daughter of Beihou of Beiyan Kingdom." My father, in order to resist the Northern Barbarians, died on the battlefield, buried his bones in Yanmen Pass, he was a great hero of Northern Yan, but he was scolded by the Northern Yan country for collaborating with the enemy and treason, and even my Cen clan was killed by Lian Xian!"

Speaking of this, Cen Yao, who had always been calm, had red eyes and glowed with blood, as if he remembered the great hatred of the past few years.

Confucius put down the book in his hand and looked at the girl silent, he knew that Cen Yao couldn't forget the hatred of the sea of blood! That was the hatred of the entire Northern Yan country.

The Northern Yan Kingdom is in Beiyue, which is equivalent to the status of the Southern Jin Kingdom in Nanyue. It is the head of the Beiyue countries, a backbone to resist the Northern Barbarians!

Eleven years ago, the northern barbarians invaded the south, crossed the Saibei Desert, and approached Yanmen Pass, and the Beiyue countries bore the brunt of it, and under the command of Beiyue Xianshan, they united with the Great Shang Dynasty of Middle Earth to form a large army to march north, and fought a bloody battle at Yanmen Pass for three years, and finally retreated from the enemy.

The commander of the three armies of the Northern Yan country, the famous Zhenbei Hou Cen Changsheng of Beiyue, died on the battlefield, but for some reason he was accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason, and the Cen family was killed by the Northern Yan royal family, only the youngest daughter of Cen Changsheng was rescued by the Confucian who traveled to Beiyue and was taken away from Beiyan.

The world said that the Marquis of Zhenbei was highly meritorious, and it was not tolerated by the Northern Yan royal family.

In the next three years, Confucian students took eight or nine-year-old girls all the way to the south, walked through several major dynasties in Middle-earth, came to Nanyue, and finally came to this Nanyang Academy.

Confucian cultivation is unfathomable, even the dean of the academy calls him sir, and he is very courteous. He took Cen Yao to settle here for five years and accepted him as a disciple, and he is now sixteen years old. Only then did he participate in this year's autumn examination of Nanyang College and become a student of the college.

"Today, you draw this picture, it means that you have not forgotten your hatred, you have been teaching you for eight years, but you also know the hatred in your heart, and now that you have cultivated and entered the Lotus Realm, I don't know if you are still willing to practice in this Nanyang Academy?"

He was a Confucian monk, and Confucian teachings were only responsible for guarding the world, educating the world, and prescribing rituals to maintain order, and did not directly participate in the disputes of other countries. Therefore, Cen Yao's revenge, as a teacher, he can't revenge. If Cen Yao still doesn't give up, she can only rely on herself, whether she can return to Beiyan in the future and avenge the annihilation of the clan with her white bones.

"Where the teacher is, I am there. Cen Yao replied. She lived in Nanyang Academy for five years, but she had no attachment to her. Surviving alone in the world, all Cen Yao's attachment is on the teacher.

"What if I tell you that I am going to the Southern Wilderness?" asked Confucius. The time is ripe, he runs through the north and south of the Middle-earth Divine Continent, and waits in the Southern Jin Dynasty for another five years, it is time to go to the Southern Wilderness to settle the tasks and grievances given to him by the master.

Cen Yao's face was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't know what to say for a while. In the southern wilderness, the coexistence of demons and evil is even more terrifying than the northern wilderness, and the teacher actually wants to go there! With her own cultivation in the three realms, the teacher will never take her there.

It turned out that the teacher wanted to participate in this year's autumn exam by himself, so he planned to leave himself in Nanyang Academy, and then go to the Southern Wilderness alone!

Is this what he has been planning for many years? And he was just accidentally rescued by the teacher on a long journey?

Cen Yao was smart and thought a lot for a while......
