Volume 2 The Reader 25 Painstaking efforts to live up to the head

The snow is falling, and thousands of miles are frozen, but this Yuan Chongfeng, no snow can come in, and the abrupt little green in the boundless snow-white picture scroll makes people curious.

There were two people on the mountain, with their heads bowed and their teeth gritted, refusing to retreat.

Zhuang You didn't know how long he could hold on, his mouth didn't relax, his body was wailing, his whole body was making a noise, but the person next to him didn't fall, how could he fall?

Inhaling countless times, trying to lift his feet, slowly crossing a short arc in the air, stepping on the next stone step, his mind was almost blank, only breathing and lifting his feet, I felt that I would be crushed to death at any time, but my shoulders were always stubbornly holding on to death.

Wang Xiaoli scolded his mother in his heart for having no strength, but he suddenly thought of a lonely back in his mind, damn it.

Everyone thought that Wang Xiaoli just didn't like his name and was too stupid, but in fact, what he really didn't like was that the man was called Wang Dali, which was not a joke, although it was a joke.

Although Bailu Academy is famous all over the world, Wang Xiaoli didn't want to come in at all, Lao Tzu wanted to be a general in charge of the three armies of the Tiger Fu, how could he go to this bird place to study? Especially when he thought of reading, he thought of that man.

Everyone in the world knows that the generals Wang Jian and Dugu Hongcheng are white and right-handed, Dugu scheming, Wang Jian is brave, and when it comes to the fierce men of the three armies, there is no Wang Jian name, so don't mention it. Wang Jian is not greedy for beauty, has no concubines, and only has one son under his knees, and this son has become the laughing stock of many people in Daqin.

Wang Jian is not highly educated, named his son Dali, thinking that the little guy will be able to take over the banner in his hand in the future and continue to fight in the Quartet, but Wang Dali grabbed a Confucian classic when he grabbed Zhou, and in the future, he only likes to read well and swordsman's reading embryo, and the general Wang is so anxious that he slapped his thigh, no way, the old Wang family can also be a scholar, Wang Jian found a few great Confucians in the world, and as a result, a few Taoli self-contained gentlemen simply taught a waste who couldn't even lift people. Wang Jian found some gentlemen one after another, but his son was an elm head, so he had to give up in the end.

Wang Dali is unknown, living in a corner of Luoyang, no one cares, Wang Jian rarely comes to the door, only on the day of marriage only drank a glass of wine and hurried away, until Wang Xiaoli's birth let Wang Jian come to the door again.

In Wang Xiaoli's impression, his father is a very gentle person, there is a peach tree in the yard, his father always likes to read and write under the tree, his mother will study ink on the side, and Wang Xiaoli will always chase the falling petals under the peach blossom tree. One day, Wang Xiaoli actually knocked down his father's beloved peach tree, and his strength became stronger and stronger, but his father was not angry, but touched him in fear and said, "It's okay, it's okay"

The father, who had never been angry, quarreled with the old general all night after Wang Jian came to the door, and the next day, Wang Xiaoli went to the general's mansion, and his father stood at the door and did not speak.

Wang Xiaoli, who lives with his grandfather, is more and more satisfied with his grandfather, and everyone in the Wang family knows his natural powers.

Sometimes when I go back to see my mother, the man will always look at himself with a smile in a Confucian robe, but Wang Xiaoli is no longer used to the gentleness of men, and his grandfather said, "Mediocrity is his sin, and the farther away from him is to protect him." ”

Wang Xiaoli is older, and he heard that his father's first-hand article was famous in Luoyang when he was a teenager, but because he had written bad words about Zhao Gao of the Heavenly Cardinal Council, the imperial examination did not go well, and even his grandfather was reluctant to say much about it.

Wang Xiaoli asked the man, and the man with a rough name but a gentle life picked the ripe fruit from the newly planted peach tree and handed it to the young man, who ignored it and had to take it back, looking at his son, he said: "I am a scholar, and some things cannot be changed." ”

"But why are you going against the Heavenly Council?"

"There are some books I want to read, and some people don't let me, so I'm not convinced. ”

Wang Xiaoli didn't like to read since he was a child, he really didn't understand what the man meant, the man smiled and reached out to touch Wang Xiaoli's head, but the retreating teenager made him feel empty, he didn't care, and said, "You can read when you have time." ”

Reading and reading, you know that reading is a big joke, poor and sour talent, but Wang Xiaoli disobeyed his grandfather for the first time, and then, he came to Bailu Academy.

Thousands of thoughts floated through his mind, Wang Xiaoli climbed a stone step, the night was dark, but the two teenagers were still climbing.

Climbing, because it's really climbing, the two of them can't stand up, they are holding on hand and foot, and there are stars in the sky behind them.

I don't know how long I climbed, spinning day and night, forgetting things and me, and I don't know whether I live or die.

The whole person was already prostrate on the ground, the flesh and blood on his hands were blurred, Zhuang You and Wang Xiaoli stretched out their left hands at the same time, and climbed up, who knew that they were empty-handed, and they were suddenly able to raise their heads, without a little pressure, the face of the senior brother was very blurry, and there was a "top of the mountain here" in his ears

Zhuang You's eyes were black, he fainted, and before he lost consciousness, he heard Wang Xiaoli's weak "bastard" in a trance

It's finally over, and the teenager is tired and satisfied.

The Dingzike antler test, which took nearly a month, came to an end, and on a sunny afternoon, the main peak was ranked for the final ranking of the antler test.

The antler test for subjects A and B is not held every year, so this main peak can be described as a crowd of people, and a large number of students gather in the square, crowded to the brim.

"Hey, have you listened to the book, this time both civil and military games are the top of the list. ”

"Who's that?"

"It's the guy in the blue robe. Everyone looked at his fingertips and saw a rather cramped teenager.

"Hey, isn't that Chef?"

"Oh, it's him, yesterday's braised pork is really unpalatable, he needs to come back soon. ”

......

And Zhuang You and the gentlemen stood on the high platform, looking at the black crowd below, a little restrained, but Yuan Yuanyuan, who was sitting on the chair next to him, said witty words, yes, he had woken up.

"Zhuang You, you kid can, you actually beat Dugu Cun, I think I am famous in my life, but I was yin, Lao Tzu must find the field!"

Han Xiaoguo looked at the audience, his big eyes were rolling slightly, and he couldn't find that person, so he had to bow his head in disappointment. And Wang Xiaoli chatted with Shi Lezhi enthusiastically, and made an appointment to have a good fight next time, only Dugucun was independent, looking at the audience coldly, and a few teenagers got together to chat, it was Li Yanshu, Xu Yizi and others.

Old man Tang grabbed a small bag of peanuts in his hand, fried them fragrantly, rubbed off the red skin, threw them into his mouth, and chewed them deliciously. And Qi Donglai, who was yellow-faced and thin-skinned, looked at Old Man Tang who was throwing peanut skins everywhere unhappily, moved his buttocks and wrapped his clothes tightly and no longer moved, like a salted fish still hanging in Zhuang You's room. Lu Jiyi sat in a serious position with a long sword on his lap, Mr. Qiu was teasing the insects inside with a small urn, and Mr. Zhao, who taught Zhuang You's historical books, had empty eyes in a daze......

The dean with a pale face came to the stage and delivered a speech that was neither salty nor light, and it was time for him to be ranked.

Everyone knows that the first stable is Zhuang You, but the next nine are not so certain, the score of the literary test is fixed, and the ranking of the martial arts test is also set, but the two need to be carefully considered for ranking.

"Tenth place, Xu Yizi", the young man smiled at Mei Yusheng, who knew that the girl didn't look at him at all, so she had to be discouraged, it seems that the tenth is indeed not in the eyes of the beauty.

"Ninth, Li Yanshu" The audience cheered.

"8th place ,......"

Until the top six, the talents on the stage really couldn't wait, and the dean paused and continued to read.

"Sixth place, Han Xiaoguo. The little girl smiled, and Zhuang You and others also congratulated.

"Fifth place, Shi Lezhi. Shi Lezhi grinned, holding a big knife in his hand and eager to draw the knife to celebrate.

"Fourth place, Yuan Yuanyuan. Yuan Yuanyuan, who was sitting on the chair, bowed slightly and thanked him.

"Third place, Dugucun. Dugucun's face was expressionless, the bruises on his face had not completely dissipated, and the folding fan in his hand was clenched very tightly.

"Second place, Wang Xiaoli" The audience cheered again and again, although Wang Xiaoli was rough on weekdays, his popularity was not bad.

"The head of the case, Zhuang You. ”

The young man smiled, the oath he made in the past has been fulfilled today, and the congratulations of his classmates around him, coupled with Dugu Cun's blue face, are really satisfied.

The next thing is the reward, except for Zhuang You, the rest of the people have been rewarded with the magic weapon of the pill, and Zhuang You can enter the second floor of the study.

The second floor of the study is a place that all students and even monks in the world dream of, and it is said that there are countless secret books inside, but only students and gentlemen of the Jiazi family can enter it.

Unless, get the antlers test head.

Zhuang You washed and changed his clothes with a pious mood, and then came to the study.

I don't know how many times I walked the way to the study, and I stayed in the study almost every night in the year of the college, which was really hard, and every time I approached the brightly lit study, Zhuang You would always look at the top of the study and think about what was inside.

Today, I finally got what I wanted.

As soon as he walked to the door of the study, Zhuang You saw Senior Brother Tang Jing and hurriedly said hello, Senior Brother Tang, who had always been unsmiling, was quite patient when facing Zhuang You.

"Senior Brother Zhuang, come with me. ”

Zhuang You walked with Tang Jing to the door of the study, and as soon as he stepped into the door, the scene inside made him stunned, not the familiar scene on the first floor.

"The second floor of the study will let you in when you need it. Tang Jing explained to him.

Zhuang You looked at the rows of bookcases, not as solemn and strict as he imagined, no different from the first floor. A few windows are ajar to see the scenery outside, and the breeze blows, bringing a chill.

Zhuang You didn't know what to do now, but fortunately, Senior Brother Tang beside him said: "The antler test arranges for the first person to enter the second floor, there is a reason for it, if you have any questions, you can ask me." ”

"Senior brother, what are the books in the collection here?"

"There are all kinds of types, exercises, historical books, refining tools, medicine, etc., there are many of them. ”

"Senior brother, what do you think I should choose?"

Tang Jing used to be the head of Ding Zike's case, so Zhuang You asked him like this.

"Do you know how many students there are in the Jiazi family?"

Zhuang You was puzzled by this question, and Tang Jing quickly said, "There are five people in total." The bluffing teenager was stunned, so little?

"The students of the Jiazi Department are all selected by the dean, and the others can choose a book that suits them on the second floor when they arrive at the B Division, and then practice from then on, until they graduate, only the students of the Jiazi Department can freely enter and exit the second floor. ”

"There are many purposes for the academy to do this, one of which is that although the academy recruits students from all over the world, it is the academy of Daqin after all, so it has reservations, and the Jiazi department is all Qin people. ”

"As for what you should choose now, I suggest you choose an exercise that suits you. ”

Zhuang You didn't expect Senior Brother Tang to say it so clearly, as if it had been arranged a long time ago, and he hesitated for a while.

"This was arranged by Mr. Lu, if nothing else, he will be your teacher next. ”

Zhuang You is still a little confused, what is a teacher and why Mr. Lu?

Tang Jing led Zhuang You to a row of bookcases and said, "You can choose yourself, you can't take away the book, and you can choose to go to the second floor to read it every day, limited to this book." ”

Entering the second floor once is not literal, but you can go in many times, but the permission can only be one book.

Zhuang You walked around the bookcase, "Nanming Lihuo General Outline", "Heart Sword Technique", "Zhongyulu" ...... A lot of books that don't know how to perceive pass by in front of me, it's a terrible feeling.

The young man walked around in rows, although his heart was full of yearning, and he longed to read all the books, including one book about the secret history of the Great Zhou Dynasty! From the early morning to the beginning of the lanterns, the young man lingered.

Finally, he walked in front of Tang Jing and handed out the yellowed booklet in his hand - "The Great Wall of Sword"
