"These are the two days. Chen Lin'an replied.

He didn't worry about Ying Tianchang, who returned from the northwest this time, the latter's mood fluctuated greatly, Chen Lin'an could predict that after this weak scholar who had also traveled thousands of miles of mountains and rivers also knew about this incident in the northwest, Ying Tianchang would notice more things that he would not have noticed before, and he would not be able to drill the horns of the bull because of this, and he would be persistent for this from then on. There are pros and cons to everything, but there are trade-offs in everything. Xu Lu could expect all this to develop, and the trip to the northwest would only have more advantages than disadvantages in the future. Therefore, Chen Lin'an came back this time to see with his own eyes how his little junior brother had changed, and at the same time, it also made him not too obsessed with what he thought in his heart.

Chen Lin'an raised his head, and the grassland was endless. And the blades of grass in front of him, although they were destroyed by the autumn wind and bent over their waists in pain, refused to fade that little bit of green.

Just like he is doing now, take Ying Tianchang around and don't let him lock himself in that remote and lonely wooden house all the time.

This is the green plain of Xinzhai, evergreen all year round.

Chen Linan hopes that Ying Tianchang can come out by himself to see the scenery of Xinzhai and see the wider outside world.

The world will only be better.

Chen Linan sighed, this is his habit, and it is also his worry at the moment. He knew that this matter was still too far away for Ying Tianchang today, even if Ying Tianchang wanted to take a look at the outside world at this moment, after he walked out of the academy, what would fall into his eyes would only be gloom and suffering, and the painful moans that those people had in the world and were destined to not disappear would be infinitely magnified to break into the young man's ears, turning into blunt knives one after another, slowly cutting off the young man's soul that was no longer pure.

Just like what he saw in the northwest this time.

Born from the heart, the Zen saying of Buddhism could not be more correct.

Ying Tianchang just stood by Chen Lin'an's side, touching the yawning bun in his arms from time to time. The occasional breeze carried a little heavier than before, Ying Tianchang knew that today was colder than yesterday, and he also knew that tomorrow would be colder than today. And what Chen Lin'an was worried about, he didn't know.

In a sense, he also knew that there were some problems in his state of mind, and he wanted to correct them. But at the end of the day, it's one thing to know, it's another thing to make corrections.

Otherwise, the so-called lock heart ape bolt Yi Ma Taoist will not be so difficult to cut off the three corpses, and it is impossible to become a Buddha and an immortal after doing it.

Ying Tianchu also exhaled, but it was not Chen Lin'an's sigh.

Chen Lin'an suddenly showed a smile.

Chen Lin'an said: "Fortunately, the little junior brother can gain something in the northwest. ”

"What?" Ying Tianchang turned his head, faintly feeling that something was wrong.

Harvest, is your own injury counted?

Chen Lin'an pointed to the young man's chest and said, "Being able to live here is the biggest gain." ”

"Huh?" Ying Tianchang was even more confused, but the appearance of a girl in a white dress unconsciously appeared in his mind.

But thinking of her, Ying Tianchang was a little melancholy, as if he rarely saw her smile? In the young man's mind, the girl's delicate face has always been an expression. But just this expression, the boy took it into his heart, and he never got tired of looking at it.

Chen Lin'an felt that this was very good, and he had a concern in his heart, although what he did sometimes seemed a little unreasonable and stupid, but that was the truest appearance that he had never concealed.

That's the beauty of the world.

It is also the most beautiful beauty.

"What's the matter, is it something?" Chen Lin'an asked.

"Things?" When he said this, Ying Tianchang realized that what Chen Lin'an said was referring to Wu Dongxi, and at the end of the northwest, Xu Lu also called Wu Dongxi like this, which shows that their relationship is really good.

Maybe she robbed her of the positions of her saint disciples and Mr. Four. Ying Tianchang said: "How is it possible. "The boy wanted to say that it was too late for her to hate me, but after thinking about it, there was no need.

Some things can be said, some things can be forgotten.

Not only does it not make sense to say it, but it can also lead to something unnecessary. The young man didn't want that Xinzhai Sanxi to block his door and ask him why he spoke ill of her in front of Chen Lin'an. Although this is not like something that Wu Dongxi can do, who can guess what she can do.

In Ying Tianchang's thoughts, if you can deal with her less, you will have less, and there is no need to add trouble.

Seeing that Ying Tianchang was reluctant to speak, Chen Linan stopped asking, but the subtle smile on the corner of his mouth always made Ying Tianchang uncomfortable.

Chen Lin'an is very happy, his little junior brother will have such an appearance now, and there will be such emotions in his heart, although his appearance has not changed much, but it is like two people who were like a dead boy in the old pavilion in the mountains and fields a few months ago. That's enough.

Chen Lin'an took a deep breath of the autumn Xiao Suo, inexplicably, he now began to miss Wanxiu in the small building in Chang'an.

I don't know if there is autumn rain in Chang'an, will she be in front of the window?

The worries of autumn are you worried about the loneliness of all creatures in the autumn rain, or are you worried about your aging appearance?

Or is she missing a scholar who said she would redeem herself? Chen Lin'an touched his cheek, he was really joking, Wanxiu will not get old, so there is only when she dislikes herself.

Chen Lin'an remembered the first days after he got acquainted with Wanxiu, and he hid it like Ying Tianchang, not telling his husband and disciples.

There are joys and sorrows. That's nice.

Chen Lin'an didn't speak, Ying Tianchang didn't speak, and followed him, Senior Brother Chen, on the grassland called Qingyuan in Xinzhai.

The grass bent over for the breeze, and Chen Lin'an and Ying Tianchang each poured for the person who lived in their hearts.

Ying Tianchang suddenly remembered something and asked, "Senior Brother Chen, where can Xinzhai know about the strange things outside?"

Chen Lin'an's thoughts were pulled back by Ying Tianchang, and he said: "There is a branch of Baixiao Pavilion in the Qingfu Fang of Fang City, which is closest to Jingxin Valley, and you can know everything in the world if you go there. ”

Chen Lin'an thought for a moment and continued: "Of course, some confidential things will not be hung out in Baixiao Pavilion, if you have something you want to get to the bottom of it, you can go to the boss behind Baixiao Pavilion, that is, your second senior brother Xu Lu." He knew most of the things in the world. ”

Ying Tianchang wanted to know about the outside world, which was a good thing, so Chen Linan told him some of the details. But soon Chen Lin'an found that Ying Tianchang returned to the same way with him, talking about things by himself, he always listened to a word without a word, and he was not sad.

Chen Lin'an smiled slightly, changed the topic, and said, "But in the next few months, the junior brother should be very busy." ”

"Huh?" Ying Tianchang raised his head, but he looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water.

Chen Lin'an said: "Someone should notify you in a few days, so I will tell you in advance." ”

"There are often connections between Confucian academies, and Xinzhai as a Confucian academy naturally often communicates with other academies, but the most fearful thing is to carry out those so-called 'exchanges' with those academies that are expected to compete for the first place in orthodoxy within the Confucian forces, either fighting or quarreling, and there is no idea of exchanging and helping each other to improve learning, but fighting for the false name of who wins and who loses, and wants to trample on the other academy under himself. The literati are inferior to each other, and that's the truth. ”

Ying Tianchang said: "If there are the top ten seats in Xinzhai, Xinzhai will not lose, right?"

"It's not a question of losing or not losing. Chen Lin'an sighed, "Okay, of course, I don't want to lose." But to be able to come to Xinzhai to do this kind of thing with great fanfare, no matter the reputation or strength, you can't lose Xinzhai at all. And Xinzhai has occupied the first position in Confucian orthodoxy for so long, and it is said that there is no first, but the rest of the Confucian forces are somewhat dissatisfied. And this time, it is a lot of Confucian forces who have come together for you. ”

"Me?"

"You are the fourth disciple of Zhang Yuanchun, one of the Confucian sages, the fourth Mr. of Xinzhai, and at the same time you are still a student of Xinzhai. ”

"It's even better for them to win the whole heart at the same time. ”

Ying Tianchang was silent.

Chen Linan didn't say much anymore, but said: "Little junior brother, you don't need to have any pressure, it's just a false name, you don't have to worry if you win or not." ”

Ying Tianchang grinned and said, "Can you not participate?"

"It's not a question of whether you participate or not, those who have a heart can keep pestering you until you get impatient. Chen Lin'an said with deep understanding.

Ying Tianchang thought that it was the same, and there should have been many people pestering Chen Linan at that time to step on him and get into everyone's field of vision.

Hawkers, now is not the time to think about this, Ying Tianchang feels that most of the time the mentality is still the mentality of soldiers coming to block the water and cover the earth, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge. At that time, the other party pestered him to compare his hard power, and no matter how much he thought about it now, it would be useless, he could only say that he was psychologically prepared.

Ying Tian looked at the sky, and a wisp of purple appeared in the clear blue sky.

Ying Tianchang thought it was very good-looking.

"Is there still a big heart?" asked Ying Tianchang.

Chen Lin'an nodded, his finger pointed to the south, that was where they came to put down, and said: "Further south of Jingxin Valley, is Linxian Lake, every morning there must be a white mist curling on the lake, boating on it, as if you are in a fairyland." ”

Chen Lin'an pointed to the west again: "There is the Thousand Learning Tower, which is the place where Xinzhai collects books, the tower has a total of nine floors, layer by layer, and the lower six floors are available for students to browse." Further west of the Thousand Learning Pagoda, there are more scenic spots. ”

"And this Qingyuan goes further north, is Xiaoshan, there is a small pavilion at the cliff of Xiaoshan, where I used to chat with your third senior brother. ”

Chen Lin'an said: "The heart is very big, you can take a walk more and take a look if you have nothing to do." ”

Ying Tianchang saw Chen Lin'an put his hand into his sleeve. Chen Lin'an's clothes have not changed, the old Confucian robes are covered with a loose robe, which is still as ordinary as before, and there is even some residual dust on the robe. Chen Lin'an is like this, he is an ordinary person.

He has two sleeves of breeze, but he has more than just a breeze in his sleeves.

After Chen Lin'an's hand stretched out of his sleeve, he had an extra book in his hand.

He handed it to Ying Tianchang and said, "Little junior brother, I still need to read more books." ”

Ying Tianchang didn't like to read books, nor did he like to listen to such words, but at this moment, he took it with joy and nodded.
