Chapter 107: Merry
When neither the truth nor past experience work, it is better to think about some problems in reverse.
Why didn't Wangshulou come down?
This is a question that everyone who is waiting here has doubts in their hearts, but if you understand it the other way around, why did Wangshulou come down?
There are many explanations for this question and there are good reasons to use as an explanation.
The entrance test was held by Wangshu Building, so they should be the one who should come down to explain the situation.
But if we think about this explanation the other way around, why don't we take the initiative to go upstairs and ask them what they are trying to say?
Because the other party is Wangshulou? because he is afraid of death?
That's right, it's this problem, no one is afraid of death, but standing in front of Wangshu Tower is obviously useless.
Since it is useless to be afraid, then it is necessary to do something useful.
For example, go upstairs.
Wu Qitu and Fang Chang walked in front, the two of them obviously regarded this as a second test, and even kept admiring it in their hearts.
This mountain, that building has become this mountain, this building.
Because they have already seen the building, they can point to the 100-foot building.
Just because the two of them can understand it doesn't mean that everyone can think about it, and some people are confused and obviously think that this is sending them to death.
They were ready to die when they went to the West to take the entrance test, but when they stood in front of the bridge, this preparation was completely filled with joy, and it was not so easy to cross the overnight bridge and let them pick up the preparations they had made before.
The student who conveyed the words of the dean looked at Lin Ying and Xu Changan in front of him and said, "This trip is here in the next place, and I wish the two of you success in climbing the stairs in advance." ”
Although Wu Qitu and Fang Chang only thought of anything because of Xu Changan's reminder, Xu Changan, as the key game-breaker, couldn't figure out the situation, and even thought that the two of them suddenly had convulsions.
I honestly waited here for half a month, and I almost starved to death without taking a step forward, why now?
It would have been understandable if they had gone upstairs before they came, because it could have been considered hungry and crazy.
But now, are you full?
Hearing someone talking in the back, Xu Changan subconsciously turned around and asked, "Why don't you go together?"
The student shook his head and smiled, "I didn't come willingly, I came, and I was very satisfied." ”
Xu Changan pursed his lips, obviously thinking that this was just a scene, and asked, "Are you afraid of death?"
The student nodded and smiled calmly: "No one is afraid of death, if it is in vain." It's just that the death of the next may affect the position of the father, if the situation in the court is changed by this, and three or two more people die, it will be difficult for us to die. ”
Xu Changan listened to the clouds, you can change the situation in the court if you die?
However, he didn't say it to his face, because the student didn't look like a pretend, but admitted unusually frankly that he was indeed afraid of death, and in most people's hearts, such a person should not be too bad.
Thinking about it again, Lin Pinggui had said these questions as early as when he was in the south, although he didn't know much about the situation in the court, he could also hear a general meaning.
Rubbing all of these together, his father should have a powerful official.
......
If Lin Ying knew that Xu Chang'an had come up with such an answer after thinking for a long time, he would only feel that this kid was too slow to react, wasn't this a fact that was already clear when he was in the southern border?
Not only the student, except for Xu Changan and Lin Ying, all the students who came to participate in the entrance examination in the Dachang Dynasty were the sons of official families.
Xu Changan rubbed his delicate chin that had not yet grown stubble like a short and fat man with a flat shoulder, stared at the back of the man walking away, and said to himself: "Great official, if you can go to the capital to find him in the future?"
Thinking of the end, the young man smirked, as if he had already thought of himself wearing a long shirt, a leather belt, shorts, shallow shoes, and a black sword at his waist.
Don't say it, it's quite magnificent!
Lin Ying stood aside and stared at the young man with disgust, and after a while, he shook his head slightly, sighing.
Of the four people from the Dachang Dynasty, only Xu Chang'an and Lin Ying are now left, and the original nine people from the eleven countries have also become six.
Xu Changan hurriedly restrained a little, turned his head and looked at the four people walking towards the building in front of him, frowned slightly and asked, "Shall we go?"
Lin Ying's answer was decisive and unquestioning, "Go!"
Xu Changan knew that asking her was also asking in vain, when Lin Ying could say the word 'not going' in her mouth, it must have been taken away.
If you go, you may die, but if you don't go, you won't die, it seems that it is easy to measure which is more important.
Xu Changan nodded and fell into deep thought.
Lin Ying doesn't care about him, there is Jiang Ming in the back, this kid will naturally not go back alone.
So he just picked up his gun and followed the crowd towards the building.
Xu Changan was not in a hurry at this time, but was unusually calm.
He panics, but he usually doesn't panic until this kind of life-and-death question, and that's the reaction that only has time to do when he's out of danger.
Holding the black sword, he slowly sat on the snowy mountain, and looked in the direction of the bridge with his back to the group.
The frown is not thinking about something, but because of what you want to see.
Following Xu Chang'an's gaze, on the bridge were three students who had just left the climbing team and were walking slowly.
On the other side of the bridge, there were three war horses white, one black and red, and Jiang Ming in a green robe.
Under the bridge is a surging sea of clouds, mixed with flowing water from nowhere, flowing cheerfully.
Jiang Ming is on the other side of the bridge, and the green mixed with the white looks more jumpy and more beautiful.
Other than that, the whole mountain was the same color, but none of that was what he wanted to see.
Xu Changan's eyes saw the small footprints on the bridge, which were white at first, and gray as his gaze faded away.
Xu Changan was looking forward to it, expecting the gray footprint in his eyes to turn black, but he didn't have it after all.
On top of the snow-capped mountains, which were all white, he wanted to see something different, such as a touch of black.
Looking down, he saw that his black clothes and black sword were not what he wanted to see.
Xu Changan stood up, his eyes had narrowed into a slit, and his eyebrows had become a rope, but he still couldn't see it.
Looking back at the building, it was very high, very good, and the young man nodded with a little satisfaction.
Without thinking too much, he ran after the people who were far away.
No one is afraid of death, and the four people in front of them should not be sent to death easily, plus after crossing the bridge, this building has gradually become less unknown, so if you want to go, go there.
And thousands of miles have come, and now it is not very cost-effective to turn back the same way, no matter how you look at it.
What's more, the building is very high, and the view is farther.
Standing on that building, you should be able to see what you want to see.
"Brother Divergent, wait for me. ”
Everyone looked back at the same time, and saw a young man in black running on the snowy mountain, holding a black sword in one hand and beckoning forward with the other.
Wu Qitu was a little surprised, stood in place and waited quietly, and only smiled when Xu Changan came to the front with a pant: "I thought you wouldn't follow." ”
Xu Changan panted, clutched his chest, and said after his state eased a little: "I didn't think I would follow, I didn't even think I would come here." ”
Lin Ying didn't have too many doubts about Xu Changan's words, and she didn't think that this young man could actually come here, and she was willing to follow upstairs.
But there should still be some contempt, Lin Ying smiled and mocked: "Don't cry for a while, you have to go back." ”
Xu Changan looked at the girl he had followed all the way, and said in a daze: "You look so good when you smile, like..."
Lin Ying's smile froze instantly, and he said angrily: "Get out!"
"Okay. ”
This was not Xu Chang'an's reply, but a young man wearing a Taoist robe.
Everyone turned around and looked at Fang Chang behind them to figure out the situation.
Xu Changan was speechless and said, "Then you get out." ”
Fang Chang hugged the long sword in his arms and rubbed his head with his free hand, obviously not understanding why he was so afraid of this girl with a silver spear.
Wu Qitu also turned his head and looked Fang Chang up and down.
Fang Chang was uncomfortable by his eyes, and threatened, "You want to die?"
Wu Qitu shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm thinking about you..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a burst of soft boos around him.
Xu Changan looked at these two teenagers who were older than himself, and even felt that these two people should have developed an improper relationship all the way, and then remembered the appearance of the short and fat man holding him when he was in Sifang City, goosebumps couldn't help but fall to the ground, and he hurriedly raised his foot and stepped on it in the snow a few times.
Wu Qitu naturally knew what everyone was thinking, and couldn't help but explain with a smile: "I'm thinking that there is no young little Daogu or anything like that in your Taoist temple?"
Hearing this, everyone shushed again and was disappointed.
It was only at this point that those who believed in their dignity realized that their thoughts and practices did not seem to be in line with their status as cultivators, so they hurriedly restrained themselves.
Fang Chang stretched out three fingers with one hand, rubbed his eyebrows lightly, closed his eyes and said, "Do you know what yin and yang are?
Wu Qitu nodded with a foolish smile when he heard Fang Chang, and didn't say anything, just stood in place and waited quietly for the following.
Seeing that he really couldn't be fooled, Fang Chang gritted his teeth and turned around, sighing and saying casually: "I'm the only one in our Taoist temple!"
Wu Qitu sighed, revealing an expression that was the same.
"I have time to come to Chang'an City and let you know what a merry flow is. Wu Qitu invited.
Xu Changan looked at Wu Qitu, thinking that this person looked like a scholar, and asked puzzledly: "Scholars are also romantic?"
Wu Qitu laughed, "What's more, Taoist priests can also be romantic." ”
Merry?
Xu Changan suddenly thought of something, took out an envelope that he picked up at random from his arms, and opened it to see that there were four pieces of crumpled letter paper inside, with vague tear stains on them, and in addition to the three words that Liu Chunsheng had inscribed for himself.
The four pieces of letter paper came from within the Xu Mansion somehow.
Said stealing, it was his own mansion, and it was indeed found by climbing over the wall and priing the window and then pouring up the bookshelves.
It's not stealing, it's not taking, if you want to ask Xu Changan how he came, he really can't say.
Carrying these four letters, I have traveled thousands of miles from north to west, and they provide a relatively obscure location.
There are two key words, 'Oriental' and 'Merry'.
took out the fourth one, handed it to Wu Qitu, and asked, "Is the place written on this letter Chang'an City?"
Wu Qitu took the letter with both hands, and just glanced at it without hesitating to praise himself: "Good words!"
Somehow, when I heard someone praise my son, the young man always felt that he hadn't scolded him yet.
Xu Changan's eyes widened, "Did I ask you to boast?"
Wu Qitu smiled: "It's just from the heart." ”
He lowered his head and looked at it seriously, nodded slightly, and then gently folded it back to Xu Changan, and replied very confidently: "I can be sure, it is Chang'an City." ”
