In the middle of the night, Qingping Town, Inn.

"No, no, ah!"

Mu Chuan woke up from his sleep and sat up, behind him, it was shady.

"Did you have a nightmare?" Mr. Mo's voice came from the darkness.

"Sir, I don't know, the dream was dark at first, then a red light appeared, and I couldn't see what was inside. The boy's grip on the thin quilt loosened, "I think..... I just feel so scared." Mu Chuan swallowed his saliva with difficulty, his back was covered with cold sweat, and when the cold wind blew at night, the slightest coolness spread, and he suddenly felt weak all over.

"It's just a dream, sleep. "The room was calm again.

Mu Chuan lay back on the bed, the scene in the dream still appeared in his mind from time to time, and in the dream that had just happened, he vaguely heard the call of his parents. The sound of "Chuan'er" hit him like a heavy hammer in the depths of his mind, but he just wanted to find the source of this sound, the red sky wrapped in him, he couldn't see what it was, but he was afraid, he was like a piece of tea in a boiling kettle, tossing up and down. Lying on the bed again, cold sweat ran through the corners of his eyes, like a tear.

Sleepless nights.

After the lively Qingping Town temporarily calmed down, the exam ended, many candidates were able to take a good rest, the final task is to wait for the announcement of the results, this assessment from the major cities to draw many meritorious seniors to assist in grading, seven days later to know the results.

Mr. Mo was a little strange, when he went to the town first, Mu Chuan showed great interest, but after the days were free, he seemed a little interested.

At the desk, Mu Chuan stared blankly at the book in his hand, but his mind was blank, and his heart was even more groundless. Since the exam that day, his heart has not been calm, and inexplicable palpitations have never appeared, and Mu Chuan is even a little scared of this feeling.

"Is it because I'm too nervous?" Mu Chuan said to himself, "But, are you so scared, worried about falling off the list?" the young man laughed to himself. "If that's the case, I'm not worthy of being a disciple of Sir. ”

"Mu Chuan, go out with me. Mr. Mo's voice sounded, seeing his favorite disciple looking so apprehensive, Mr. Mo shook his head, still too young, and said secretly in his heart.

Mu Chuan responded, forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, cleaned up, and regarded it as a way to go out for a walk, Mu Chuan comforted himself in his heart.

Wandering around with Mr. Mo every day, it is nothing more than visiting old friends, looking for surrounding places of interest and the like, and soon, the day of unveiling the list has arrived.

The notice board outside the government is crowded with people is the most appropriate description.

Before the big red list, it can be said that life is staged. There are people who can't help but be happy, and there are a lot of bitter tears, and the fish jumps into the dragon gate, which is the last hope for poor students.

Mu Chuan squeezed into the crowd, looking at the surging crowd in front of him, secretly complaining in his heart, only hating himself for not growing too tall.

The people crowded at the front of the list, looking at the list of names, naturally wanted to make a comment.

"It's a pity that Wang Gongzi didn't take this exam..."

"Which prince is it?"

"Who else can there be, naturally it is Wang Hao, the son of the richest man in Qingping Town. ”

"Tsk, who is this person, I haven't heard of the name before..."

"Brother Tai, this prince is a first-class scholar, that day, with the young man in Mai in this mansion, it is easy to deal with the questions made by the director......"

Wang Hao, who was so strong, didn't take the exam, which was a bit unexpected by Mu Chuan, but thinking that he was the son of the richest man, Mu Chuan felt a little reasonable.

"Brother Tai, can you help me find my name?" Mu Chuan took a lot of effort, reached out and patted the man's shoulder, looking from the back, the body shape was round, and he should be a person with a wide heart and a fat body.

"Hey, hey, it's easy to say, one name and one silver coin. "There is no shortage of business-minded people everywhere.

Mu Chuan was helpless, so he had to take out the silver coin from his arms and hand it over: "In Xia Muchuan." "I was apprehensive, and that feeling seemed to be even stronger. "Are you on the list?" the corners of the boy's mouth flashed with bitterness.

"Mu Chuan, right, Mu..." the man shouted happily, "Hey, I found it, the top of the list! what? the top of the list?" The profiteer looked very surprised.

"Hehe, brother, how can you ask for money with a show of effort, who are you and I Zhou Fatty, really. A fleshy palm stretched out, and many people next to him showed contempt for you, but the fat man didn't care, his round face was like a blooming chrysanthemum.

In first place, Mu Chuan was a little distracted, and the feeling in his heart did not disappear, but became stronger. The boy's mind was blank, there was no fat man, no crowd, no ranking.

"It's not a ranking. The boy muttered.

His heart was beating so hard that every stroke could echo in his chest, "Go! poof!" The fierce heartbeat missed half a beat, and the boy's head suddenly lifted, and his eyes were bright but quickly extinguished.

"No, it won't!" the voice was flustered, and the delicate face was a little hideous. Mu Chuan hurriedly pushed aside the crowd, spread his feet, and ran in the direction of the inn like crazy.

"What's wrong with him?"

"It's hard to control your joy. ”

"You don't want it" The fat man's outstretched fist quietly retracted, and the silver coin was held in the palm of his hand, thinking that he didn't even think about returning it, which made others despise it greatly.

......

"Sir!sir!" the door to the room was violently pushed open, and there was no familiar cyan figure in the small room. Mu Chuan was a little scared.

"What's so flustered? A familiar tone sounded behind him. Mr. Mo looked at his proud disciple, a little puzzled, he had never seen him so gaffe.

Mr. Mo was fine, and Mu Chuan's fierce heartbeat eased slightly. But then a terrible thought came out of his mind, and he couldn't suppress it!

The young man's face suddenly did not have a trace of blood, and when Mr. Mo saw this, he hurriedly stepped forward and supported his crumbling body. Mu Chuan felt a clear feeling coming from the hand behind his back, which made his mind a little clear.

"Sir, shall we go back now?" Feeling a little calmer, Mu Chuan looked at the old man in front of him, this was the only person in the world that he could trust wholeheartedly except for his parents.

"Go back now?" Mr. Mo was a little puzzled, "It's time to distribute the paperwork in the afternoon, don't you plan to take the paperwork and go back to the village?" Mr. Mo didn't ask Mu Chuan's ranking, this was an affirmation, he knew best what his student level was.

Mu Chuan shook his head, his eyes were a little frightened: "Sir, I have a feeling, a feeling of being very scared. But I'm fine, sir is fine. After a pause, Mu Chuan continued to speak, "This feeling, I have only felt this kind of time twice, on the day of the twelve-year-old Liqiu..."

Mr. Mo looked at the student in front of him, this was the first time Mu Chuan begged him seriously. His students are smart and understand etiquette, but their personalities are indeed a little strong, and in the so many years that the two have been teachers and students of each other, he has never seen Mu Chuan beg others. This reminded him of Mu Chuan a few years ago, one day in class was also restless, asked him for leave to go home, Mr. Mo didn't know why, but still agreed, and later learned that Mu Chuan's father fell down on the mountain, and his head was knocked on the head.

"I don't think there's a reason for me to refuse. However, this time, Mu Chuan obviously didn't have much ability to think, and Mr. Mo sighed, "Pack up your things and leave immediately." ”

On the street of Qingping Town, Mu Chuan and the two stopped in front of a carriage, Mu Chuan was asking the coachman about the price, and the feeling in the young man's heart made him not want to delay for a moment.

"Sir, please lend me some money, in the future..."Mr. Mo waved his hand to interrupt Mu Chuan's words, "You and I still have to do this?"

Looking at the appearance of Mu Chuan's six gods and no master, Mr. Mo sighed, since this is the case, it is okay, after all, time is running out, so let's do one thing for him in the end. Mr. Mo said secretly in his heart.

"I have a quicker way, let's get out of town first. With that, he raised his steps and walked out of town. Looking at his teacher's back, Mu Chuan didn't say much, and quickly followed.

In a remote place outside the town, Mr. Mo stopped, his left hand was slightly raised, the small jade pendant hanging on the belt flashed a faint light, and a jade boat-like thing floated half a foot above the ground out of thin air, this thing was only the size of a palm at the beginning, and it was long after the wind, but it was as wide as a carriage for a breath, engraved with quaint patterns, and the fly in the ointment was that the boat body spread a few black cracks. Seeing this, Mu Chuan took half a step back in surprise, his pupils shrank, but he didn't say a word.

"Come on. Mr. Mo was the first to step on the jade boat, and Mu Chuan followed, and then the pattern of the boat shone slightly, and a light blue light barrier shrouded the boat body. In a moment, the jade boat rose into the sky, and in the blink of an eye, it had become a blue dot. The fierce wind rippled faintly on the pale blue barrier.

Looking at Qingping Town, which was gradually getting smaller below Yuzhou, Mu Chuan's heartbeat became more intense.
