Volume 1 Yin and Yang Yi Dao Chapter 43 Thunder out of the ground
Ling Qianshan slowly opened his eyes.
He stared blankly at the completely unfamiliar beam, then jerked over and sat up. Looking around, this should be a dwelling, on the flat floor tiles, accompanied by low tables and chairs, the table is scattered with a few small daily items, a bronze mirror, in addition, there are all kinds of medicinal materials scattered everywhere, making the room full of choking herbal smell, depending on the type, some are not even Yao Xiaoge's. Ling Qianshan glanced at the hidden window, and could vaguely see the doors of other houses, and the sound of gurgling water came. Ling Qianshan got out of bed suspiciously, walked to the window, raised his hand to push the window open, but a small boat suddenly rowed through the window, startling him.
(What's going on today, I don't know what to do!)" The boat was a rough woman, and when Ling Qianshan pushed open the window, the window almost hit her. Although the rough woman was far away, the voice came, and she scolded in the local dialect while pushing the oars, "Fa Ciben!" (neurotic!)"
Of course, Ling Qianshan didn't understand this kind of local language, but he knew that he must be scolding him. He closed the window in amazement, only to see the Ling family's sword diagonally supported in the corner on the side, and Xiaobai's animal tooth jewelry was still hanging on the handle. The boy walked over, put the fangs back on his neck, and then lifted his sword.
"How does it feel?"
The voice of Zhen Xiaosheng came from outside the door.
Ling Qianshan was silent for a while, and when he was unconscious, he vaguely felt a strong heat spread to all parts of his body, and it should be Zhen Xiaosheng who used his vitality to heal him. Otherwise, even if Zhen Xiaosheng didn't kill him, with his physical state at that time, I'm afraid it wouldn't last long before he killed himself. Ling Qianshan moved his shoulders, only feeling refreshed, he shook his arm along the way, and his bones continued to make a series of firecracker-like sounds:
"It's so much better than before. ”
"You have a very strong internal injury in your body, I guess, it is caused by your swordsmanship constantly hurting your body, and this time I healed it together. Zhen Xiaosheng walked in from outside with a medicine bowl, Ling Qianshan thought that the medicine bowl was for him, and he didn't want to stretch out his hand, but he saw Zhen Xiaosheng holding the bowl and drinking it clean, "But what I can cure is only to the extent of the internal organs at most, but your soul is also damaged, so I can't help it." ”
"Damage the soul?" will damage the body, Ling Qianshan has been mentally prepared. But it will damage the soul, but the class teacher's edict has never mentioned it.
In other words, is there really such a thing as a god?
"When you get to my level, you will know that there are some things that you can't see, touch, or even feel, but they exist there. Zhen Xiaosheng said so, and specially added, "But I don't know whether reincarnation is true or not." If you want to ask about this kind of thing, ask the monk. ”
"I don't want to ask any monks, I just want to ask one thing......"
Now, of course, Ling Qianshan knows that the person in front of him is Zhenjiang Nanzhen Xiaosheng. Previously, Zhen Xiaosheng deliberately said that he was not, just to force Ling Qianshan to make a move in advance.
Ling Qianshan said with a cold face: "You masters, don't you like to torture people half to death, and then help them." ”
"Haha-" Zhen Xiaosheng couldn't help but laugh, and coughed violently halfway through the laughter: "I'm a good heart, many things can only be rebuilt if they are destroyed first." However, if this kind of fierce medicine wants to cure the disease, there must be a condition first. ”
"What is it?"
"Hollow Valley Orchid. Zhen Xiaosheng put the medicine bowl on the table, and twisted up some medicine powder and put it in the bowl, it seems that he wants to make another bowl, "Only people who have no innate vitality can withstand the destruction of foreign vitality, and even reshape." ”
Ling Qianshan's eyes flashed, and he said, "You really suffered a very serious internal injury...... So you know about this treatment, but you can't use it on yourself. But what kind of person can hurt you?"
"No matter how high the master is, he will grow up slowly. Zhen Xiaosheng smiled bitterly.
He obviously didn't want to continue the conversation, "Then, it's almost time for you to report to the Little Sage Village." Xiao Shengxian Village followed the road out, and it took less than half a pillar of incense to arrive. ”
"I see. Ling Qianshan nodded, and prepared to leave with his sword in a dashing manner, he didn't ask about Sinan's situation, because even if he asked, he was afraid that he would not get an answer. At the moment of stepping out of the threshold, Zhen Xiaosheng, who was staying in the house, asked abruptly:
"I asked you before, but you didn't tell me the answer - I said, if you die there, will you regret it?"
Ling Qianshan turned back in surprise.
The sunlight was coincidentally blocked by the clouds at this moment, and I saw the person asking the question standing alone in Xiao Xiao's humble house, lying on his sick body, covered by the layers of herbs in the room. For a while, Ling Qianshan couldn't help but have some kind of illusion, as if Zhenjiangnan, who was famous and one of the five uniques of the rivers and lakes, was just a prisoner who was isolated from the world and imprisoned himself.
Fortunately, it was just an illusion.
"As long as you keep going, you'll encounter unspeakable enemies. Perhaps, there are already many people eyeing you. Each of them is stronger than the other, and you, who don't even have vitality, can only stab a sword in the end, and then return to your hometown. Even if it is a fluke, it is not a long-term solution, and it is possible that the soul will be destroyed. Are you really willing?" asked Zhen Xiaosheng in a deep voice.
Ling Qianshan did not hesitate, and saluted the town students in a proper manner, and then replied loudly: "The fluorescent light of rotten grass is no better than the bright moon of the heart of heaven." However, the rotten grass also does not let the pride of Haoyue. Moreover, I have heard that a gentleman should strive for self-improvement in order to be worthy of great responsibility. Even though you are dull below, you will follow it!"
"Yes, I wish you could keep up this momentum......
Zhen Xiaosheng muttered, he waved his hand, and the door closed in response.
Ling Qianshan didn't know why, but he respectfully gave another salute. The boy turned to stride, but heard a terrible cry behind him, like a beast waiting to be slaughtered. At the same time, the surrounding residents stopped what they were doing in surprise and looked up at Zhen Xiaosheng's platform. With this roar, the chaotic vitality could no longer be restrained, causing the Taimen to shatter in an instant, and it turned into a ruin.
When the house collapsed, panicked residents fled with their heads in their hands.
And in the endless fog and smoke in the rise, only Ling Qianshan walked steadily, and the lonely figure was twisted and blurred in the dust.
He didn't look back, and walked straight towards the little sage village.
......
"Come on, come on, everyone sign up here!" a scholar shouted as he stood at the gate of the glamorous academy with a pen and ink. A scholar was sweating profusely and put the words "Little Sage Village Registration Office" at the top, "Trouble is lined up!"
A large number of students at the door suddenly became a mess.
Interestingly, the dress of this group of students is not the same: among them, there are serious scholars dressed up, and there is no lack of Jianghu rangers, who are dressed in strong clothes, and if you look carefully, you can also see a few men dressed as women, among them there are also exotic visitors, veiled Western Regions ladies and strong Hercules guards, there are also Fusang cross-sea study envoys, Ling Qianshan even saw one or two young men and girls with the characteristics of beasts, probably from the Xuan clan.
"Get out all your letters of recommendation!" said the scholar with the pen jumped to his feet in anger, but fortunately there were a few dumb servants to help maintain discipline, otherwise the door would have been breached.
Ling Qianshan took out the letter written by the class teacher from his arms, which did contain a thin letter of recommendation, and it was specially pressed with ink. When he was on the road, Ling Qianshan wanted to open it several times, considering that it was likely to be a trap set by the class teacher, he didn't dare to open it without permission. He came in well, the line had just taken shape, and he was unexpectedly arched to the front row.
"Take a look at the letter of recommendation!" said the scholar who worked as a coolie with a grin, and after seeing Ling Qianshan's letter of recommendation, he snatched it over, looked at it casually through the sun, and then threw it back to Ling Qianshan, who was stunned, "Okay, return it to you." ”
Ling Qianshan should indeed be stunned, because he couldn't react to the moment he snatched the letter just now.
"Okay, confirm it's done!"
"Then I can come in. Ling Qianshan was about to enter the academy, but was dragged back by the scholar, "Hmm, is there anything else?"
"Of course there is!" said the two scholars at the same time, one of them said triumphantly, "I want to enter our Little Sage Village, but I have to take an exam!"
"Exam?" the crowd was full of comments.
Ling Qianshan glanced at the people behind him in surprise, and he only now realized that the reason why he was able to rank in front was that the people in front of him coincidentally chose to make way for the back, so they arched him up. And the reason why everyone tacitly did this was that they expected that if they wanted to enter the Little Sage Village, it would not be so smooth.
Therefore, Ling Qianshan became the first person to taste food for unknown reasons.
As for whether he eats a crab or a spider, it depends on his creation.
"What do you want to test?" So, Ling Qianshan asked.
The scholar struggled to pull out a mahogany box from behind the door, which was filled with shredded paper, "You take any one, and the one you get is your exam question." ”
Ling Qianshan looked at the shredded paper in the box and found that they were all folded in half, presumably with different exam questions. And this exam question will become a stepping stone to enter the small sage village, in order to complete the task of the class teacher edict and get the opportunity to meet the emperor, Ling Qianshan he has no choice but to pass this exam. So he made up his mind, reached out and chose one from the box, and at the same time, his body twisted to distance himself from the other students, and he quickly looked down at what was written on the paper:
When the painting is round, the writing time is square, the winter time is short, and the summer time is long.
It's actually a tiger, a riddle. And it's a riddle that everyone knows the answer to. Ling Qianshan was confused in his heart, but he didn't show it, just got out of the way and went to the corner to observe the situation of the others.
He looked very carefully and realized that the questions given to each person might be different. Some people walked away with a sudden realization at a glance, while others stood there with a sad face. The most bizarre one is a fat scholar, and he draws a blank piece of paper.
"What does this blank paper mean?" he asked the scholar.
The scholar shrugged his shoulders and said casually, "Is it probably a bye?"
"Then I can enter?" said the fat scholar happily.
"No, you mean you're disqualified. Another scholar immediately followed.
"Huh, why?"
"What's more, it's an exam, God knows what the examiner did. Probably your paper test was lucky, and your luck was too bad, so you were not admitted. ”
"What is this called!" the fat scholar immediately cried out with a sad face.
The scholar shrugged, "This is the truth of the little sage village. ”
Ling Qianshan saw all this, his heart moved, and he immediately walked to the fat scholar's side. I just wanted to talk, but I didn't want to be preempted by another person.
"In Xia Lanling. The man smiled and said to the fat scholar, "What do you call Brother Tai?"
Ling Qianshan took a closer look, but he didn't expect it to be Lan Linghuan.
