Chapter 2 I want to try
In a blink of an eye, it was already the third watch, Lin Gu had been sleeping well, but suddenly there was an urgency to urinate, and he hurriedly got up and rushed to the thatched house.
and returning along the same road, but when I looked up, I saw that the lights in my parents' house were still on.
"Why did Dad and Mother get up so early today?" Lin Gu leaned over with some curiosity to take a look.
"Daddy, I've been thinking about it all night, whether to let the orphan go or not!"
Although they said yes during the day, they had to discuss it at night!
"It's a good opportunity, let's let him go. Lin Lan said with a frown.
"But he's only 16 years old, let him go out alone, I'...... I'm a little uneasy. Liu Ran said with some concern.
"Alas......" The two people in the room became silent for a while, only the sound of Lin Lan pouting as he smoked a cigarette.
After half a ring, he spoke: "I have inquired about this matter, there are a total of four people in our county who have been selected by Shangzong, and the other three are mostly around 18 years old, and only our orphan son is 16 years old." ”
"Then you still let him go?" Liu Ran was a little anxious.
"Haven't I finished speaking, I heard that the younger he is, the greater the chance of success, if he can really cultivate into an immortal, this life will not be like ours in this small village for a lifetime. Lin Lan said slowly.
"you, there's another thing you thought?!"
"What's the matter?"
"If the lonely son doesn't go this time, how will the people in this village and even the county think of him, it is estimated that he will not be able to raise his head in the future!" Lin Lan took another puff of his cigarette and said with some bitterness.
"That ......" Liu Ran covered her lips with some fear.
......
"it, it's not early, go to sleep, I'll sit again!"
"Then I'll be with you!"
......
The couple may never have thought that their ordinary conversation would complicate the simple mind of the weak figure outside the door for a while.
Lights out, go to bed, Lin Gu lay on the bed with his hands on his pillow. Maybe there is one more thing, my father didn't think of it, if I don't go, there will still be you who will be spurned.
......
Early the next morning, Lin Gu got up early, and the family of three sat in the courtyard to eat.
"Dad, mother, I think about it, I want to go to Jiuzongtai to try. Lin Gu pouted and said to Lin Lan and Liu Ran.
Lin Lan and his wife were stunned for a moment, and then Liu Ran's tears couldn't stop wanting to flow out, Lin Lan turned his head to look at him, shook his head slightly, and Liu Ran's tears didn't flow out.
And Lin Gu, after saying that, lowered his head and put rice in his mouth, and naturally he didn't see that scene.
"Daddy, I'm done eating and I'm out. ”
After the parents watched Lin Gu go out, Lin Lan put the chopsticks on the bowl, and Liu Ran's tears flowed down her eyes.
As parents, what their children think in their hearts, they don't know, sometimes they can't say.
............
Four days later, Lin's father and Lin mother hurried to the county entrance with Lin Gu.
Because their family came relatively early, there was no one at the entrance of the county, but the county magistrate Zhang Huji had already come here and waited.
"I didn't expect that the first one to come was Mr. Lin, Zhang has been waiting here for a long time, so I congratulated the old man here. Zhang Huji saw that the three members of the Lin family were coming, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet them, and the officials behind him also hurriedly followed, Lin Lan saw that the county magistrate personally greeted him, and he shouted even more gentlely, a little embarrassed for a while, and even more frightened and cramped, and hurriedly returned the salute to the county magistrate, for fear of offending this smiling Buddha.
Lin Gu was a little scared when he saw so many servants, and leaned towards his mother slightly, as a mother's heart, seeing her son like this, she leaned over and said something in Lin Gu's ear, which made Lin Gu laugh at once, and the feeling of nervousness was gone.
What my father said to the county magistrate was nothing more than polite words, which were not interesting.
Lin Gu originally wanted to go around the world, but seeing it like this, he dispelled this idea, so he stayed where he was.
Those officials were tall and short, thin and fat, and it was very funny to stand together, and they wanted to laugh at Lin Gu but didn't dare to laugh, so they turned their heads to look elsewhere.
At this time, he saw a large group of people coming over at the end of the county entrance, led by a fat man wearing a silk satin, fat head and big ears, holding two jade beads in his left hand, spinning back and forth in the palm of his hand, with a green jade wrench on the thumb of his right hand, wearing green cloud boots with trimmed edges on his feet, and eighteen agate beads hanging around his neck, which was very magnificent.
On the left hand side of the big fat man was a little fat man, who looked the same as him, except that he didn't bring so much jewelry, he was wearing almost the same clothes, holding a big bag of buns in his left hand, and stuffing his right hand into his mouth from time to time.
To the right of the big fat man is a beautiful woman, and at a glance behind him you can see that it is a group of minions.
Such a big formation has long attracted the attention of the county entrance, and the county magistrate Zhang quickly stepped forward and gave a big salute to the fat man, the fat man didn't seem to be a domineering person, and he also gave the county magistrate Zhang a salute with a big belly.
County Magistrate Zhang led a group of people to the county entrance to get together with Lin Gu's family. After getting closer, Lin Gu really saw that the family was really rich, needless to say, what they were wearing, and the dozen or so servants behind them also carried two big boxes, not knowing what was inside.
"Old man Lin, this is the richest man in our county, Wang Fucai, the one on the right is the royal woman, and the one on the left is his beloved son Wang Fugui, who is also the one who went to the test this time. Zhang Huji introduced to Lin Lan's family one by one.
"Master Wang, these two are Lin Lan, Liu Ran, this little young master is Lin Gu, and he is also the one who went to the test with the rich young master. Zhang Huji pointed at Lin Gu and said.
"Master Wang, it's polite. Lin Lan saluted Wang Fucai, and when he saw this line, he knew that it was Wang Fucai, after all, he was the richest man, and there were people in this county who didn't know him, but whether Wang Fucai knew Lin Lan or not was not necessarily.
"You're polite!"
Lin Gu never expected that such a fat man could be selected, would this be a bit fantastical, when Lin Gu looked at Wang Fugui, the fat man also happened to look at him, and handed Lin Gu a bun, Lin Gu took it politely, but did not eat it.
After a while, several subordinates of the Wang family brought three chairs from behind, and the three masters of the Wang family sat down unceremoniously in front of so many people, and after that, they didn't say anything, and Lin Gu's family didn't mean to speak, and it was not easy to come forward to talk, and the county magistrate couldn't find a word for a while, and a group of people at the entrance of the county were waiting there, and the atmosphere was very depressing.
"Lin Gu, Lin Gu ......" There was a burst of shouts from behind Lin Gu.
Following the direction of the sound, everyone saw that a young man with explosive hair was running towards him, followed by three people, a tall middle-aged man, an ordinary-looking middle-aged woman, and an old servant at the back.
"Muyang, are you ......" Lin Gu asked the young man beside him in surprise.
"Why, if you are chosen, I will not be chosen. Mu Yang put his hand on Lin Gu's shoulder and said.
"............" Lin Gu was a little speechless with excitement for a while.
"Lao Lin!"
"Lao Mu~"
Lin Gu and Mu Yang's father have been old friends for many years, the Lin family is not well-off, but the Mu family is not like this, although they are not as rich as Zhu Fucai, but they also have a head and face in Hongyang County, which has not affected the relationship between the two families.
Since he was a child, Mu Yang's father Mu Bin often took Mu Yang to Lin Gu's house, it can be said that Lin Gu and Mu Yang played from childhood to adulthood, although many times Mu Bin wanted to help Lin Lan solve their family's predicament, but Lin Lan was too stubborn, he insisted on not letting him, for the dignity of his old friend, Mu Bin didn't say anything. However, the relationship between the two families is getting better and better in this integrity and stubbornness.
Wang Fucai and Mu Yang's father Mu Bin also knew each other, so there was no need to let Zhang Huji introduce them one by one, and they didn't talk nonsense after saying hello.
This time there was no embarrassing scene like before when no one spoke, Lin Lan and Mu Bin squatted on each other's side to discuss the children's affairs, Liu Ran and Mu Yang's mother are also good sisters, women are together, there will always be no less words, not to mention Lin Gu and Mu Yang, but most of the time, Mu Yang is talking and Lin Gu is listening.
I thought that the fourth person would come soon, but it was only until the sun was exposed to the sun, and the slave of Zhu Fugui's family wanted to scold the person in front of the master in order to please the master, but when he saw the person, he immediately shrank back, secretly relieved, fortunately he didn't scold.
This last one is none other than the number one bully in Hongyang County, the Wang family.
And the last place is Wang Jie, the only son of the Wang family, who is also the first place on the parchment scroll in Zhang Huji's hand, and he is also the person who was directly accepted as a disciple by the elder of the Xuanqi Academy in the Four Talents Academy, one of the nine sects.
Not long after Wang Jie came, a person who soared into the clouds fell from the sky.
