Chapter 26: Calligraphy and Swordsmanship

When it came to his own affairs, Li Gongfu became a lot more resentful. The things he wanted to implement the official rank did not go very well.

It stands to reason that he has been the head catcher in Qiantang County for more than half a year, and the process should have been completed a long time ago, but the documents were not issued. Obviously, there were people above who didn't want to help him solve the problem, and even deliberately pressed him.

Li Gongfu is not an immutable nerd and understands the rules of officialdom.

When he came to Hangzhou Mansion this time, he knew that it was inevitable to have some connections, so he already brought a lot of silver with him just in case.

Unexpectedly, others don't look down on him at all, and if he wants to implement his official rank, he has to at least double the amount of silver!

However, Li Gongfu really didn't save too much money and couldn't take it out.

As a head catcher, he is quite beautiful in Qiantang County, but he is not rich. Because the salary of the head catcher is not high, and he is not a person who fishes out the water with a clear conscience, he naturally has no extra spare money.

"I really don't want to do this head catcher! I can't stand this!" Li Gongfu slapped the table heavily and said angrily.

Xu Xian frowned when he heard this, he didn't expect the officialdom of the Dali Dynasty to be so dim, and the original other person was soft-spoken, and he would definitely not be able to help when he encountered this kind of thing.

However, I believe that after this government examination, his status will change.

Not to mention anything else, he induced the Wen Qi in the examination room, and the Wen Qi entered the body to refine the flesh, I believe that several inspection officials present should be aware of it, otherwise they would not smile and nod to themselves when they left the examination room.

"After the list is released, I have to find an opportunity to help my brother-in-law do this. Xu Xian thought secretly in his heart.

I was worried about a pair of things in my heart, but I still had to do what I had to do, and it was just angry to say that I didn't want to be a head catcher, and after a while, Li Gongfu went out.

In the past, before leaving, he would always remember to tell Xu Xian to study his homework at the inn, but when he left today, he just asked Xu Xian to pay attention to safety, and it was best not to go out to wander around.

He probably really gave up hope for Xu Xian's imperial examination and was ready to let Xu Xian go to the pharmacy as an apprentice.

Xu Xian shook his head when he saw Li Gongfu's back leaving in a hurry, and suddenly thought in his heart: "According to the plot in the TV series "The Legend of the New White Lady", when I met my mother, it was not long after I went to Qingyutang to become an apprentice. ”

"Now that my brother-in-law is ready to arrange for me to go to Qingyutang, doesn't that mean that next year's Qingming Festival may be the day we meet in West Lake?"

Thinking of this, Xu Xian's eyebrows jumped, and he couldn't help but feel a little more excited and worried.

Cultivating the "Great Cave True Scripture" and participating in the government exam, Xu Xian's fate trajectory and the original trajectory have undergone earth-shaking changes, and he can't be as weak and incompetent as the original Xu Xian, and he has no power to restrain the chicken.

Although the souls of the two worlds are fused, he is really Xu Xian now, and Xu Xian is also him.

But it's different.

The encounter between him and Bai Suzhen will be doomed, right?

Even if they meet at the broken bridge in West Lake at that time, will Bai Suzhen notice the abnormality, or will she no longer have feelings for him?

These...... It's all unknown.

"It's useless to think too much, what should come will always come, or I still want to do what I need to do well. ”

Xu Xian shook his head and turned around and went back to his room.

On the table, there was a peachwood sword that Xu Xian had obtained from the hands of two Taoist priests.

Peach wood is the essence of the five trees, also known as fairy wood, dragon wood.

Ordinary people almost think that the peachwood sword can subdue demons and eliminate demons, ward off evil spirits, and be infinitely powerful.

But in fact, ordinary peachwood swords will definitely not have such a magical function, only the magic weapons in the hands of Taoist priests that have been specially refined have this effect.

For example, now the two handles in Xu Xian's hands have been carved with runes by cultivators, and after they have been sacrificed and refined, they can be called magic weapons.

"It's really extraordinary, it's just an ordinary peach wood material, but once it's infused with mana, it has a special effect, and it has a strong deterrent effect on ghosts and evil things. Xu Xian tried it, and soon understood the use of the peachwood sword, which was not difficult.

He snatched the magic weapons of the two Taoist priests, in addition to wanting to punish them and teach them a lesson. There is also the fact that Xu Xian is quite curious about the peach wood sword magic weapon, this is the first time he has encountered it.

Moreover, although Xu Xian had been cultivating the "Great Cave True Scripture" for a while, and he had the magic power to plant the Dao root, he did not have supernatural powers and attack methods. In addition to the shallowness of his cultivation, there is also a very important reason because they don't have magic weapons.

Today, when he faced two Taoist priests, although the effect of lifting the pen into battle was very good, it was actually a helpless move.

"With these two peachwood swords, I should be able to perform swordsmanship. Xu Xian thought in his heart.

In the "Great Cave True Scripture", in addition to the method of cultivation and the method of depicting the talisman on the last few pages, there is only one attack spell recorded in the scripture, which is a set of sword techniques, called "The Nine Profound Sword Techniques of the Great Cave".

This set of swordsmanship Xu Xian has already been hot, if he practices to a high level, he can fight the sword! It's just that his previous cultivation was insufficient in mana, and he didn't have a magic weapon, so he couldn't even draw out his sword qi, so how could he talk about the enemy?

But with the magic weapon, it's different.

The magic weapon is equivalent to a conductor, Xu Xian's own cultivation is not enough to cause sword qi to hurt people, with the help of the magic weapon!

The two peachwood swords, although the grade is not high, belong to the lowest grade inferior magic weapon, but this can still be done.

It's like taking two little Taoists today, and the mana cultivation is not as good as Xu Xian, but you can use the peachwood sword to catch demons.

"Buzz!"

Xu Xian held the peachwood sword in his hand, and with a slight wave, a wisp of sword light suddenly appeared through the peachwood sword, about two fingers wide, the light was bright, extremely fierce and fierce, and the corner of the desk was suddenly neatly cut off.

"The power is actually average, compared to the heroic righteousness of the way of calligraphy, slightly inferior, but it is convenient and labor-saving, and it can come in handy when facing the enemy. Xu Xian judged.

Cultivating swordsmanship is not like Taoism or calligraphy, even if Xu Xian's comprehension is amazing, his soul has never been in contact with him in this regard, so he has no opportunity to stand on the shoulders of giants directly, and can only accumulate bit by bit.

In the following time, Xu Xian was silent in cultivation.

Dao method, calligraphy, swordsmanship, several are completely different, but the way of cultivation has commonality, different ways When Xu Xian got started, he found that not only would they not interfere with each other, but would have a mutually promoting effect!

For example, calligraphy and swordsmanship actually have a lot in common.

From calligraphy, Xu Xian occasionally perceives some essence of swordsmanship, and from swordsmanship, he occasionally perceives the essence of calligraphy.

These insights are like the finishing touch, allowing Xu Xian to have unexpected gains.

"Maybe one day, I may be able to use the pen as a sword, and the power is much stronger than this peachwood sword!"
