"How long can you hold on?"

Fang Chang picked up a handful of snow from the ground, stuffed it into his mouth, looked at Wu Qitu who was sitting not far from him, and asked with a chuckle.

Wu Qitu looked around, there was really only snow on the snow-capped mountain, and even the building was white.

On the mountain farther away, there were several students from the Chu State and other countries, who seemed to not remember whether those people had brought anything to eat, and they should have been as hungry as the two of them.

"You should be able to hold out until the afternoon. Wu Qitu retracted his gaze, struggled to stabilize his mind, and spoke.

Fang Chang raised his eyebrows, and at this time, he didn't forget to compare and taunt: "It's no problem for me to hold on until the evening." ”

Hearing this ridicule, Wu Qitu didn't argue with him, but just smiled and said, "Although I don't know which Taoist temple you come from, if you starve to death here, will it be big news in South Vietnam?"

Fang Chang nodded, thinking carefully for a while.

But it's not about himself, but about the other party, who seems to have thought of the picture when the news of Wu Qitu's starvation came to the Crazy Book Pavilion, and he couldn't help but laugh and said: "It seems to be a little embarrassing, I have already thought of the picture when the Pavilion Master walked out of the Crazy Book Pavilion angrily and came to this Taiyin Mountain, don't say it, I'm really looking forward to it." ”

Wu Qitu naturally knew his thoughts, but he didn't taunt back, but just sighed: "Hurry up or not late, it seems that there is really not much truth in this world that can be relied on." ”

Maybe it was because the wait for half a month was too boring, Fang Chang was still mocking, "What did you say when you came?"

Wu Qitu was slightly stunned, and carefully searched in his mind for what he had said.

But the two of them had said so much along the way, who could have guessed what he was going to ask based on this sentence alone?

"I remember you said that you were rich. ”

Wu Qitu nodded and said with a smile: "Are you going to sell me a piece of meat?"

Fang Chang smiled, "If you have good teeth." ”

There was money to spend, and these two people fell into the same situation as Xu Changan and his party on that road.

The corners of Wu Qitu's mouth asked with a hint of playfulness: "Which country do you think will be the next one?"

Fang Chang inserted the long sword in his hand into the snow, took a deep breath and patted his head again, sighing uncontrollably, several times he wanted to stand up and leave this place, but he thought that filling his stomach was the right thing.

Both of them had answers in their hearts, which is why Fang Chang was so entangled.

......

The overnight bridge is just to decide whether you can participate in the entrance test, not that you will definitely be able to enter the Wangshu Building after saying that this bridge will definitely be able to enter the Wangshu Tower.

So this seemingly simple question is really simple.

But it's just relative, after all, more people can't cross the bridge.

Wangshulou may be disappointed that there are still so many people who can't answer such a simple question, but Xu Changan doesn't think about whether Wangshulou will be disappointed, what he knows is that I have already crossed the bridge!

No matter how aggrieved he was a moment ago, this is a great encouragement for a young man who has just come out of his home before opening the mountain.

Now Xu Changan is not only happy, but also extremely calm.

But even if he was as calm as him, after thinking carefully and pondering for a long time, he frowned slightly and held back a sentence, "Wangshulou is teaching us to do things?"

This is a question that no one has ever thought of before.

A Wangshu Tower, which has not appeared in the eyes of the world for hundreds of years, suddenly held an entrance test to invite eleven countries to participate, which is difficult not to make people wary of whether it is going to make any big moves.

Therefore, no matter which country received this invitation, they were speculating about Wangshulou's motives.

Most of those speculations were thought to be a temptation, or an attempt to reassert oneself.

But now they seem to be thinking more complicated, and no one thinks that the entrance test is just an entrance test.

I thought it would be a giant beast with a bloody mouth and a fierce fang, but I didn't expect to become a life lecturer now?

This gap is definitely good, but it is difficult for most people to accept in a short period of time.

The unknown represents fear, but it does not necessarily mean that the unknown is necessarily fearful.

Lin Ying was also puzzled, although this Wangshulou had never heard of anything hurting the heavens and reason, there was no reason to go to such great lengths to make such a show.

Even if the problem is clear, it is more still incomprehensible.

Those who failed to cross the bridge accounted for the majority, and the team of more than a dozen people was now only a handful of Xu Changan and Lin Ying.

On the other side of the bridge, Lin Ying's white horse bared his teeth and kept kicking and beating his front hooves as if he wanted to try it, when Lao Tzu was rushing to kill on the battlefield, you were still humming at home and asking for sugar gourds to eat, can you still be weak?

Lin Ying's spear turned slightly, and the white horse instantly died down.

Jiang Ming raised his hand and pointed lightly at the war horse, and then pointed at himself again.

Xu Changan and Lin Ying naturally knew what they meant, but they didn't understand why she didn't go back with Yang Hejiu.

If the words don't reach the other end, no one will speak in vain.

Xu Changan bent down at the other end of the bridge and bowed his head and made an irregular salute.

Yang Hejiu smiled and nodded.

But the people around him, whether they crossed the bridge or didn't make it, couldn't help but feel happy when they saw the young man's hand-waving movements.

On the other side of the bridge, Yang Hejiu opened his mouth and asked, "You have to walk with them." ”

Jiang Ming squatted slightly and saluted: "Yes, Mr. go all the way." ”

Yang Hejiu nodded and turned to leave.

Since the dean said that Yang Hejiu should return to the Spirit Academy, it should be something in a hurry, so no one among the remaining students followed, and he was afraid of dragging this gentleman down.

However, the monk waited for a long time halfway up the mountain, not caring that the dean had anything important.

......

At the Spirit Academy, the dean opened the door early in the morning and looked up at the lair under the eaves, which was still empty.

He said to himself, "It stands to reason that this should come back too, right?"

Pushed open the courtyard gate, came to the courtyard, raised his sleeves and put them across his head, covering the morning sun on the horizon.

Perhaps because he felt that his action seemed to be a bit pretentious, the movement of his sleeves across his head quickly turned into scratching his head.

The morning sun was not dazzling, and the dean raised his head and exhaled lightly.

"And the weathered rain, raised eyebrows and breathed. ”

A man dressed as a gentleman came to the dean's side with a smile, waved his hand and saluted, "I've seen the teacher." ”

The dean was quite surprised, turned his head to look at his students and asked, "You don't have to prepare for the assessment?"

Ju An was slightly stunned, and said with a wry smile: "The teacher has set the time for the admission test in the autumn, and the students who came to catch the exam are scolding outside the hospital." ”

Hearing someone scolding the street, the dean was not annoyed, but nodded with a smile as if he was watching a good show at the gate of someone else's courtyard, "You don't say that I forgot, what are they scolding?"

Ju An smiled: "I'm scolding the teacher." ”

The dean patted his chest with some fear, and said, "Fortunately, Xiao Jiu is not here. ”

Ju An nodded in agreement, and the two of them didn't seem to care about this kind of thing at all.

Perhaps feeling a little unwilling, the dean frowned slightly and asked, "Are you just scolding me?"

Ju An shook his head and said speechlessly: "The time for modifying the admission test is an internal matter of the Spirit Academy, so the conversation can't be led to His Majesty the Emperor's head." ”

The dean lifted his forehead, "I should have asked those who were officials to post this obituary in the first place." ”

The corners of Ju An's mouth twitched violently, and he asked tentatively: "The students have already started class, and they should come to class at this hour, what does the teacher think should be done?"

The dean waved his hand, "Don't deal with it, the road is blocked and squeezed through, people run all the way in vain, there is no reason to scold and don't let you scold two sentences, after scolding this year, you can stop for a while next year." ”

Ju An thought for a while and then said, "What should the imperial court say if they send someone over?"

"Ju'an, you should learn to be flexible, since it was said that modifying the admission test time is an internal matter of my Spirit Academy, then the people sent by the imperial court should let them go back. ”

"Yes, teacher. "Juan saluted and returned.

"The time for the entrance test is at the beginning of February, this point should have begun, right?" said the dean, looking up at the rising sun, and muttered to himself.

Ju An was a little puzzled, and also looked up and then asked tentatively, "It shouldn't be so early, right?"

Lord Dean shook his head, "Hurry up or not late, Xiao Jiu should also go back." ”

Ju An asked with confusion and worry: "Dare to ask the teacher, what is on that bridge?"

"Select. ”

"The teacher asked Xiao Jiu to come back, but he was afraid that he would choose the wrong one?"

"Xiao Jiu selected a good student, but sent him all the way to Taiyin Mountain to participate in the entrance test, and he had to accompany him across the bridge again? Lao Tzu's students, how can they be so bullied!" the dean snorted coldly and said angrily.

Ju An said with a smile: "Xiao Jiu went to Wangshu Tower to see Shu Lou is the teacher's meaning. ”

The dean licked his lips and was a little dumbfounded, and after a while, he said angrily: "I didn't let him take the student there!"

Ju An smiled but did not speak.

The dean changed his tone, looked at his student and said, "Ju'an, you have nothing to do, don't you?

Ju An nodded, waved his hand and replied seriously: "The student will go." ”

The dean glanced up again, and when he found that it was still early, he hurriedly beckoned and said, "I'll go after breakfast." ”

Ju An turned around and saluted, "Yes, teacher." ”

The food on the table is not sumptuous, and it seems relatively light.

"What about the little girl, why didn't you come together? The dean took a sip of rice porridge and looked at the empty seat on the side and asked.

Ju An put down the dishes and chopsticks and replied, "That girl shouldn't have gotten up yet." ”

The dean suddenly realized and said with a smile: "It turns out that I got up early. ”

The girl in the eyes of the two seemed to like to sleep very much, even when she was eating and waiting for cooking, she would take a nap with chopsticks for a while, as if she couldn't sleep enough.
