Li Ji woke up from his meditation and met the concerned eyes of the three people.

"Childe, are you okay?" Nie Xiaoqian said softly.

"It's okay!" Li Ji only felt that his spirit was clear, and his thoughts were faster than before: "It's just that this Manichaean master first plotted against me, and then turned into a Bodhi branch to save me, and I don't understand what he wants to do?"

Li Ji hesitated, and did not tell all the things in the Mud Pill Palace, but said: "However, he is already dead, and the matter here is over, let's get out of here first!"

Everyone nodded, and didn't ask more, seeing that Li Ji was really fine, they went out of the underground palace together.

The sky was dark, and Li Ji and others came to the poplar tree.

Yan Chixia's imperial envoy flew the sword, and in less than a moment, he dug up the tomb and saw Nie Xiaoqian's coffin.

Above them, a crow was running back and forth with thatch, trying to rebuild its nest.

"Flat-haired beast, where are you still running this time?" Ning Caichen looked up at the black crow and couldn't help but smile and said.

The black crow was stunned for a moment, and when he saw that it was this group of evil stars, he secretly cursed in his heart: What a fucking bad luck.

It was just about to fly upside down, but it was wrapped in a white silk and fell to the ground.

"Kill if you want. This time it's in your hands again, and the crow has taken it!" cried the crow.

Li Ji shook his head and smiled: "Second brother likes to play around, why are you messing around, Xiaoqian, let Brother Crow go!"

A white silk withdrew, and the black crow didn't expect him to release the crow so happily this time, suspecting fraud, and immediately flew up to the treetops.

"Thank you Brother Crow for what happened last time, now that the two demons have been eliminated, we will also leave this place, Brother Crow take care!" Li Ji saluted from afar, and stepped forward to collect Nie Xiaoqian's bones.

The black crow squatted on the branch and said secretly in his heart: "The tree demon and the rakshasa ghost are dead, Nie Xiaoqian also followed, I am the biggest here, quack, I will be the king of crows in the future!"

Back at the temple, it was dawn.

Li Ji and Ning Caichen were going to Wuzhou City, and Yan Chixia was going to continue north.

Ning Caichen reluctantly said: "Won't the eldest brother go to the city with us? The younger brother also planned to live next to each other with our three brothers in the future, but he didn't expect that we would be separated today." ”

"Hehe, Yan is determined to travel the world and does not want to be bound in one place for too long.

This parting, for my brother, I only hope that the two virtuous brothers will be famous all over the world, so that I can boast more capital in the rivers and lakes!"

Yan Chixia smiled casually.

Li Ji said: "Haha, the eldest brother is so free and easy, and the younger brother is also very envious."

The two elder brothers, the younger brother, after this state test, whether they are in high school or not, will go straight to Bianliang. Bianliang is the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, and the eldest brother travels all over the world, so how can we not go to Bianjing? Why don't we take it for three years, and after three years, how about getting together in Bianjing?"

"Okay, Zhong Xuan's proposal is good!" Ning Caichen hurriedly agreed.

Yan Chixia also said: "Okay, it's three years!"

In front of the gate of the ancient temple mountain, Li Ji glanced at Yan Chixia's figure, and then looked back at this secluded ancient temple, and couldn't help but sigh.

He took out his pen and ink and wrote the four big characters of "Little Guangming Temple" on the empty lintel, which can be regarded as returning the incense of the Mingjiao scriptures!

Wuzhou City, also known as Jinhua City, is named because it is in the place where Venus and Wu actresses compete for China.

At this time, it was the state examination, the great Confucian celebrities came and went, and the students from various counties also gathered here, and Jinhua City was more lively than ever.

As soon as he entered Jinhua City, Ning Caichen separated from Li Ji.

Li Ji had to prepare for the state test in three days, and Ning Cai Caichen had to go to the government medical office to find the Taoist of Jinhua Dongtian.

Li Ji wanted to accompany Ning Caichen, but Ning Caichen refused.

Ning Caichen felt that after all, the matter of seeking talismans was only his own business, and Li Ji's future was more important.

The inns in the city are overcrowded, but fortunately, the government still has post houses reserved for students from various counties.

Li Ji put his bags and wandered around the city with Nie Xiaoqian.

Nie Xiaoqian's green clothes and hat, dressed as a scholar, but she has a beautiful face and white skin, even if she is dressed up, it is difficult to hide her charm, and people can recognize this as a beautiful woman at a glance.

Li Ji was also a little helpless, although Yanfu was good, but this was too eye-catching, and the most important thing was that he could see it, he couldn't eat it, who should he find to help him build a foundation for his Pure Yang Dan Method?

Yanyu Building, located in the north of Jinhua City, adjacent to the state school, is the most luxurious restaurant in Wuzhou. At this time, a group of young Confucian students were feasting and drinking in the Accord on the top floor of the Yanyu Building.

"Haha, if you say that this is the first talent in Jinhua, it is naturally Yungui, and his poems and articles can often be praised by Yang Xuezheng and Mr. Fang of Zhou Xue.

In this state test, he must be the leader, and we can only be reduced to a foil when we try with him.

In the future, Yun Gui will enter the national prison, and he will be appreciated by the gentlemen in Taixue, and then he will enter the secret pavilion of the third hall, and then he will be crowned as a marquis and pay homage to the prime minister, which is no problem!"

It was a slightly chubby young Confucian who stood in front of everyone and talked eloquently, but his eyes kept looking at the handsome scholar sitting in the center, and there was a flattering smile on the corner of his mouth.

Chen Jie, Chen Yungui.

Chen Jie is a son of the Chen family of Jinhua Wang, he has been very smart since he was a child, and he is handsome, and soon has the reputation of the first talent in Jinhua.

"Brother Wang is too famous, although he boasts some talent in Xia, but there are heroes in all counties here, the name of this first talent, I really dare not be in Xia, I dare not be ashamed!" Chen Jie smiled reservedly, hugged his fists and thanked him, but there was a trace of arrogance in his expression.

Wang Hua said with a smile: "Yungui doesn't have to be too humble, your reputation as the first talent has already spread all over Jinhua, everyone knows your talent, everyone says it......"

When one sentence was asked, the room was silent, and Chen Jie's face became ugly.

Wang Hua knew that he had done something wrong, his face turned red, and he hurriedly looked at the woman in the green dress beside him as if asking for help.

He is used to mixing in the business field, everyone at the wine table praises each other, and tries to give the other side as much as possible, and the literati are light, who will admit that they are inferior to each other?

"Hehe, well, the eldest brother is right, Chen Gongzi's talent, the little woman has always admired it, and now that she has seen the real person, the little woman thinks that he is more handsome than rumored, Wang Shu respects Chen Gongzi for a glass!"

Wang Hua's sister Wang Shu picked up a glass of wine, walked slowly in front of Chen Jie, and raised her glass to drink.

After a glass of wine, her face was flushed, and she looked at Chen Jie with a smile on her face.

Chen Jie behaved very coldly: "Hehe, Miss Wang's witty words, I also think it's very interesting in the next, this glass of wine is still counted as a tribute to the girl!"

Seeing this scene, the beings present were even more disdainful in their hearts.

This Wang Hua is just the shopkeeper of a pharmacy in Jinhua City, he has no talent and no family background, how can he deserve to sit with them?

Although Wang Shu is beautiful in appearance, she has never read a book, and she can be good at dancing with long sleeves in the business field, and when she intersects with them, her words are vulgar and very unbearable, how can a child of a family like Chen Yungui fall in love with the daughter of such a merchant?

These two are really beyond their means.

"Hey, isn't that Li Zhongxuan? I heard that he and Miss Wang are cousins, oh, by the way, didn't Miss Wang also say that you don't marry if you are not a king? Ah, look at my mouth...... "The scholar sitting by the window said suddenly.

His name is Xia Zhen, and he is also a student of Lanxi County School, and Li Ji is generally from Lanxi Xia Li Village. When he was a child, he and Li Ji studied together in the old building of the Mengxue private school in the east of the village, and when he saw Li Ji, he recognized him.

Everyone followed his gaze and saw a gray-clothed Confucian student with a little scholar passing in front of the Yanyu Building.

"Li Zhongxuan, I heard that his family originally opened a pharmaceutical shop, but unfortunately his family fell into the middle of the road, but he was also competitive, not only was he admitted to the county school, but also won the opportunity to take this state exam, which is really not easy!"

Chen Jie's face looked at him indifferently, it was an unintentional move, but when he saw the scholar beside Li Sheng, his heart suddenly rippled.

"Since you know each other well, and I think this Brother Li is also a Confucian student who came to participate in the state examination, why don't you invite you to come and get together?"

Chen Jie said suddenly.

As soon as he finished speaking, a clever little guy behind him immediately ran down.

Wang Hua and Wang Shu still had to say something, and they didn't dare to say more when they saw Chen Jie's eyes.

"I don't seem to have any old acquaintances in Jinhua, who wants to invite me?" Li Ji glanced upstairs and saw an embarrassed fat face.

Wang Hua, it turned out to be him.

Information about this Wang Hua appeared in Li Ji's mind.

Li Ji's mother Wang and Wang Hua's father Wang Annai are cousins, so they can be regarded as cousins.

Wang Hua has a younger sister named Wang Shu, and his mother has been matching him with Wang Shu, and the former Li Ji also likes the gorgeous-looking Wang Shu, but Li Rusong has always looked down on the Wang family's philistine, so he did it.

Later, Li's father passed away, and this Wang Shu was attached to him, and most of the current property of the Wang family was deceived by Wang Shu from Li Ji.

He asked me not to go!

Li Ji in the past has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't want to care about these anymore.

The little guy looked bitter and stopped in front of Li Ji.

"Cousin!" A shy voice came out, Wang Shu stepped forward and hugged Li Ji's arm: "Why didn't you come to Jinhua City to find Shu'er, do you know how much Shu'er misses you?"

Although Li Ji felt a burst of comfort on his arm, he had no intention of enjoying it.

The point is that we are so familiar with it? Pulling and pulling in broad daylight.

"Ah, you woman, let go of my son-in-law!" Xiao Qian said angrily on the side.

"I'm talking to my cousin, what's the matter with you, a servant?" Wang Shu was also very spicy, and said to Nie Xiaoqian when she heard this.

Nie Xiaoqian's face turned cold, and Li Ji hurriedly blocked in front of her.

Xiao Qian is not easy to mess with, if she hurts someone's life in Jinhua City, then it will be a big deal?

"Miss Wang, can you let go of the next first?" Li Ji said helplessly.

As long as your cousin agrees to get together with Shu'er upstairs in the rain and rain, Shu'er will let go. ”

Wang Shu stated his purpose.

"Okay, please let the girl go first!" Li Ji nodded.
