The autumn rain continued, and the raindrops falling from the sky were a little more intoxicating than Ying Tianchang imagined.

He sat on the threshold of his hut, the eaves supporting him in a space that was not disturbed by the rain. The boy's eyes looked ahead, and the raindrops shattered little by little on the dying blades of grass.

The broken droplets of water leapt up like a fish and disappeared at the boy's feet.

In this intoxication, he felt a little lost. He didn't even know how the four of them started boating on Tianqi Lake and how they went back to their respective homes.

On the boat, what happened to the four of them, Ying Tianchang didn't know. He only knew that the atmosphere on that small boat was very strange and awkward, far from being the ease of his stroll with Lu Wensheng. The boy didn't even know what to say, and what he said.

Ying Tianchang regretted that he had said the polite words of inviting Wu Dongxi and Ji to swim in the lake with him that day, and Lu Wensheng's bastard was not a big deal.

Ying Tianchang looked at the rain that kept falling and breaking, and vaguely, he felt that on the boat in the lake, Wu Dongxi's gaze at him didn't seem to be as bored as before.

No, it's not. Ying Tianchang scratched his head, he thought too much, and there should still be something.

However, Ying Tianchang's mood was much better than the rain outside the eaves.

And during this time, the civil and military examination also officially began. Ying Tianchang still did not appear at the ceremony, and similarly, neither Xu Lu nor Zhang Yuanchun, the owner of Xinzhai, attended. In Xinzhai, in the past, these things were handed over to Chen Lin'an to deal with, but what Ying Tianchang didn't expect was that Chen Lin'an was not there, and the old bookworms simply didn't care about it, and directly threw the matter to Mr. Xinzhai's master.

Compared with the ceremony announcing the beginning of the civil and military examination, there are two things that attract everyone's attention more, and even these two things have spread all over the Tang Dynasty and all over the world.

These two things are related to the sword immortal of Jian Shuxuan, the "beast under the moon" Lu Wensheng.

First, when Lu Wensheng first arrived in Xinzhai, he asked Zhang Yuanchun's closed disciple Mr. Xinzhai Si Yingtianchang for the sword, although there was no theory of victory or defeat, but the two did not know each other and became friends. Because of the precedent of Lu Wensheng's questioning of the sword Li Qinglian before, although Lu Wensheng and Ying Tianchang's questioning of the sword had no results, it made it more chewy.

The second is Lu Wensheng's sword to pick the heart of the Martial Academy.

It was rumored that Lu Wensheng and Tang Wanchu Zuoqiu had a big fight with Gu Qingrang and others all his life, and the sky was dark, and the sun and moon were dark, but Ying Tianchang didn't believe this. Although he didn't know Tang Wanchu and Zuoqiu very well, Ying Tianchang knew that at least Lu Wensheng and Gu Qingrang were not this kind of people.

When this news came out, Ying Tianchang went to Gu Qingrang to ask for exclusive and real news, and also had some food and wine by the way.

Gu Qing couldn't drink enough, but his house had countless good wines and famous wines from all over the world. He couldn't see it, so Ying Tianchang wanted to help him drink more.

Wine, although the older it gets, the more fragrant it becomes, but someone has to drink it.

He should be long, this is to help his friend Gu Qingrang eliminate some of the pain and sorrow that Gu Qing can't get rid of.

Sure enough, although the rumors outside were earth-shattering, there was actually nothing terrible.

Gu Qingrang couldn't help but laugh when he watched Ying Tianchang unceremoniously select his treasured wine in his room, he said: "Lu Wensheng has come to us one by one to find those of us who are in the top ten in the martial arts academy, saying that they are the top ten, but only the top five seats can fight with one or two, and the others are not enough to see in front of that Sword Shuxuan Little Sword Immortal." ”

"And then?" Ying Tianchang took out a pot of wine called "Wind and Snow Brewing" from Gu Qingrang's wine cabinet. This wine should be heard by Gu Qingrang to say, it is a famous wine produced in the snowfield of the north, the wine does not have a burning heat in the stomach, but instead of a cold in the heart, this wine is still not aware of anything in the stomach, but the stamina is great, it is said that a drop can be intoxicating.

Of course, Ying Tianchang didn't believe it at all in the second half of the sentence, for Gu Qingrang, he would get drunk with a drop of any wine.

Gu Qingrang saw the wind and snow brew in Ying Tianchang's hand, and his heart hurt terribly. Although the reputation of wind and snow brewing is far and wide, not only in Datang, but also in various countries there are businessmen who go north to the snow field specifically for wind and snow brewing, but the output of wind and snow brewing is extremely limited, and even Gu Qingrang relied on the family's momentum to grab such a few pots.

He pursed his lips and brought out a cup for himself.

"Yo, Gu Gongzi has changed his sex. Ying Tianchang teased with a smile, and then poured a full glass of wine for the two of them.

Gu Qingrang was not in a hurry to drink, he said: "The top five are the top five, but in general, there are only four people." Lu Wensheng was the first to find the egret, why I was not at the scene of that scene, and I didn't know the situation. And then there was me, and he exchanged a move with me, and to put it bluntly, he gave me a sword, and I slashed him, and that's it. On the surface, it seems to be a tie, but I know that I lost, just like Lu Wensheng's second sword lost to Li Qinglian. ”

"Then Lu Wensheng went to find Zuoqiu and Tang Wanchu, because I was curious, I followed Lu Wensheng. Lu Wensheng and Tang Wanchu actually didn't fight, but they sat and talked about each other, but they were also struggling, just comparing their moods and moods, this kind of competition except for the parties involved, no one could see why, maybe someone like Mr. Xu Er who watched people's hearts and saw fire can. And I'm also thinking that the sword I lost to Lu Wensheng was probably in my mood. ”

"However, Zuoqiu, who seems to be like a gentleman, has a fight with Lu Wensheng in his life, although it is a point-to-point exchange, and it has not set off any visions of heaven and earth or too much momentum, but the mystery between the moves, even I am a little frightened. It is estimated that at the conference after the martial arts examination, if these two people meet and fight with real swords and guns, it will be an extremely exciting battle. ”

Ying Tianchang nodded, and took a sip of the wind and snow brew in his cup, yes, Lu Wensheng's bastard really has something, and the people he beat are all in the top five in the martial arts academy and the top ten in Xinzhai.

It's really a sword to pick a martial arts.

The drink entered the stomach, and a cold rose from the stomach. Ying Tianchang shivered, but this chill was not the biting cold, but a cool feeling. No wonder when he was able to take out this pot of wind and snow brew by himself, Gu Qing made his eyes look like he was about to eat himself.

"Then what is the chief of the Martial Academy?" Ying Tianchang shook the wine in the wine glass in his hand and said, "I remember that An Zhongyu, the chief of Xinzhai, is the chief of the Academy of Literature, and Tang Wanchu, who is the second seat, is the second seat of the Martial Academy, so it is not possible that An Zhongyu is the chief of the Academy of Martial Arts even if he is the chief of the Academy of Literature, right?"

"An Zhongliao is only the chief of the Academy of Literature, and the chief of the Academy of Martial Arts is someone else. Gu Qingrang smiled bitterly, "You know that the ten seats of Xinzhai represent the level and strength of the entire Xinzhai, which not only depends on the level of force, but also on the person's character and morality. The seats in the martial arts academy only depend on the strength of the strength. ”

"So there's a bit of a problem with that martial arts academy chief?" Ying Tianchang drank the wind and snow brew in the cup, and then poured a cup for himself.

The coolness in his abdomen made him feel more comfortable and happy than ever.

Gu Qingrang didn't know how to answer, whether to say yes or no, it was wrong to criticize others behind his back. And their martial arts academy chief, not to mention a bit of a problem......

"Well, if you don't want to say it, don't say it. Ying Tianchang took a sip of the snow in the cup, and he found that he couldn't stop drinking, and he said, "What is the conference after the martial arts examination?"

Gu Qingrang took a sip of the wind and snow brew in his cup at this time, and said: "The assessment after the civil and military examination has been announced, after the literary examination of the Academy of Literature, there is a traditional debate meeting of Confucianism, and after the martial arts examination of the martial arts academy, it is similar to a one-on-one competition such as the martial arts conference, but compared to the martial arts conference in the rivers and lakes, this martial arts conference should be sorted according to the ranking of the martial arts examination, and strive to let every student who is on the first and second lists show up, and the winner will advance to the next one." ”

Gu Qingrang said: "The assessment after the civil and military examination this time is so uninformative, it is estimated that Mr. Chen Yi is not there, and Mr. Xu Er and they don't want to bother with it, so they decided casually." ”

Ying Tianchang thinks this is the truth.

Gu Qingrang looked at Ying Tianchang, who was constantly drinking, scratched his head and asked, "What happened to Lu Wensheng's sword questioning to you, is it really not a loss or a win?"

Gu Qingrang, like Wu Dongxi, also knew Ying Tianchang's strength, and he knew Lu Wensheng's strength after the competition with Lu Wensheng with a sword and a sword, so he was particularly shocked after hearing the rumors that Ying Tianchang and Lu Wensheng asked for a sword. But everything is not impossible, Ying Tianchang has a long spirit, and Gu Qingrang took a look at it in the war that was not considered a war in Yuefeng Mountain in the northwest.

What's more, Ying Tianchang is still the fourth disciple of Old Master Zhang, and he is the fourth Mr. Ying after Chen Yi, Xu Er, and Li San. Gu Qingrang inexplicably believed that Ying Tianchang was a little long.

Ying Tianchang didn't understand where Gu Qingrang heard that he couldn't lose or win, he grinned and said, "Then what's the question of the sword." At first, I really thought he was coming to fight with me, so I called Peach Blossom, but he stopped fighting. It's just that the sword qi I emitted was easily crushed by him with his fingers, and if he really came to ask how the sword could not lose or win, it was definitely me who lost. ”

Although Gu Qingrang believed in Ying Tianchang, he also felt that this was reasonable. He was about to continue saying something, but Ying Tianchang's body fell back to the ground and fell asleep.

Gu Qingrang looked at the remaining half cup of wind and snow brew in his hand, and he showed a resigned expression. Then a headache occupied all his thoughts, and the tired minions climbed out of the coldness in his abdominal cavity, grabbed Gu Qingrang's head, and pressed it on the table mercilessly.

Gu Qingrang also fell asleep.

Thinking about the events of that day, Ying Tianchang felt funny, and while he was funny, he wanted to go to Gu Qing's house to drink the wind and snow brew. It's so interesting, isn't it?

Well, the scar forgot the pain, no, it didn't give him pain, but a bit of comfort in his memory.

But Ying Tianchang still didn't understand one thing, he had been in the academy for so long, was he a student of the Academy of Literature, or a student of the Academy of Martial Arts?

Who should be asked to go?

Suddenly, Ying Tianchang felt a little feeling in his heart, he raised his head and squinted.

Someone came in the rain.

The man held an umbrella and stepped lightly on the blades of grass dancing in the rain.

Wind and rain do not invade.

Ying Tianchang exhaled, and then took a deep breath of the coolness in the air that was comparable to the wind and snow, and he wished that he was drunk now.

Because the person who came was Wu Dongxi.
