Chapter 14 Rushing to Examine the Scholars

Chapter 14 Rush to take the exam

The snow fell heavier and heavier, the wind blew harder and harder, and the cold wind blew out the fire through the cracks in the tiles, and swirled countless sparks to dance wildly in the air, and then fell, extinguished, and melted into the snow.

Xiaobai, who was playing in the courtyard, was driven back to the temple by the sudden heavy snow, and saw that the unburned dead branches were blown all over the ground, and the master fell aside, it didn't understand what was happening, so it ran to the master's side, "squeak" and screamed, trying to wake up the unconscious Qiu Xin, but all this was to no avail, it had to squat aside, instinctively stretched out its tongue and licked Qiu Xin's cheek, and its small eyes were full of worry.

The instantaneous pain made Qiu Xin feel trapped in a huge whirlpool, as if he had returned to his childhood, the feeling of being burned by a thousand fires in the cold cave of Qingsang Mountain, and like the infinite fear when he fell off the cliff, screaming and struggling. It was like falling into a cold cave, surrounded by the sound of "ticking" water, and a person curled up helplessly and trembled in despair.

In an instant, all the dreams were shattered, there was a faint warm feeling on his face, he opened his eyes, it was dark, and the black shadow beside him was licking his face, it must be Xiaobai, he didn't have to think about it, and there was an unbearable severe pain in the dantian, which made him subconsciously cover his abdomen with his hands, trembling violently, and hurriedly checked, and found that the dantian was already a wolf, and there was no true qi available in the whole body.

Qiu Xin smiled bitterly, then coughed twice, supported his body with one hand, sat up with severe pain, and kicked the blown branches together with his feet with difficulty, and rekindled the fire with the fire fold.

When the fire is lit, the little white glasses are a little brighter, and sure enough, in this long and endless night, only the warm light can give people endless hope.

Qiu Xin struggled to move his body back, leaning against a pillar, gasping for breath, but he didn't want to move at all, Xiaobai also snuggled up to him, put his whole head into his body, but he was already asleep, in the empty ruined temple, Qiu Xin looked up at the broken roof, snowflakes fell from it, and fell right in front of him, and the dark night sky became more and more silent and lonely.

Thinking to himself, after this snowfall, spring will come, Qiu Xin thought so, and fell asleep vaguely.

"This brother, this brother, Xiaosheng is polite. But it was a hazy and elegant voice in his ears, and Qiu Xin gradually opened his eyes and looked at the person in front of him.

Wearing a scholar's hat, a white robe, and a bamboo fence on his back, he was looking at him in the cold weather but holding a folding fan.

"I can't get up because I'm injured, I don't know what's going on with Your Excellency?" Qiu Xin tried many times but didn't stand up, so he could only say intermittently.

"Xiaosheng originally went south to Zizhou to catch the exam, passing through here, but unexpectedly it snowed heavily, trapped here, and encountered a broken temple, but he saw that Brother Tai took the lead, so he had no choice but to stay for one night, just to thank Brother Tai. After speaking, he saluted respectfully.

"Since this place is ownerless, you can live in it, and you don't need to thank me. ”

"Then what if Xiaosheng borrowed the fire from his brother's platform to keep warm?"

"Not necessarily. ”

"What if you eat Brother Tai's dry food?"

"Not necessarily. ”

"What if you throw that annoying little hedgehog out of my brother?"

"No..., what did you say?"

"Xiaosheng said, I threw out the annoying little hedgehog of my brother. ”

Qiu Xin looked around, Xiaobai had already disappeared, Qiu Xin said angrily, "Look at your scholarly appearance, how can you be so rude, how can you act rashly with other people's things." ”

"Brother Tai, don't blame, just because Xiao Sheng came last night when the wind and snow were in full swing, and he was anxious to go into the house to avoid the snow, but he woke up your pet and blocked the door, looking domineering, Xiao Sheng had no choice but to throw him out. As he spoke, he opened the folding fan and fanned it lightly twice, but suddenly he felt wrong, it was cold, and he put it away with a dry laugh. seemed to feel the anger in Qiu Xin's eyes, and continued.

"Actually, it's not that serious, and then it saw that I had no ill will towards you, so it lay down next to you and stared at me all night, staring at the ground Xiaosheng panicked. ”

Hearing this, Qiu Xin's heart eased slightly, but the anger on his face did not change, and then asked, "Where is Xiaobai now?"

"It turns out that his name is Xiaobai, which is also appropriate, I saw that it went out as soon as it was dawn, shouting at me, as if threatening me not to do anything bad, but where it is now, Xiaosheng doesn't know. ”

"Also, it's not a little hedgehog, it's a snow horn. ”

"Well, no wonder the roe deer rat is an embarrassed thing. ”

"Look at your scholarly dress, but you also have an extraordinary temperament, how can you be such a rude person. ”

"Hmm. ”

Hearing the scholar's answer, Qiu Xin was suddenly speechless, not knowing what to say, just like that, the two were silent to each other, the scholar took out a book from the back basket to read, staring, from time to time to cheer, Qiu Xin was bored for a while and thought about what book he was reading, and after reading the title of the book, Qiu Xin understood why this scholar was so profligate, the book he read was "Jinling Hai Indulgence to Death", where is the reader, but it is dirty this dress.

Qiu Xin stopped looking at him, turned her eyes to the door, and wondered where Xiaobai had gone.

After a night's rest, the body did not show any signs of improvement, there were only a few wisps of true qi in the dantian, but at this time it was okay to be lucky, Qiu Xin got up and sat cross-legged, used to heal the wounds, led the true qi from the six veins to the five internal organs, and then along the Ren vein under the dantian, to complete a small Zhoutian, and then gathered qi along the six veins on the sea of qi, and then scattered in the four remains, so it is a big Zhoutian, so that the cycle repeatedly, after running for a few weeks, the pain in the whole body is no longer so intense, and finally can stand up, hearing the movement, the scholar glanced to the side, and then indulged in the book。

After staying in this ruined temple for a day, now he came out to breathe in the air after the snow, bringing him a long-lost relaxation, only to feel rejuvenated, and the cultivation was really nine deaths, if he didn't pay attention to it yesterday, now he is only afraid of dying here, Qiu Xin couldn't help but sigh in his heart God's favor.

After the snow, the weather is clear, but it is unusually cold, the sun reflects a dazzling light, the whole land is covered in silver, decorated with a few dead trees, and the plain-clothed man stands in front of the ruined temple, it is really a beautiful ink painting.

Time passed little by little, Xiaobai finally came from a distance, if it weren't for the brown roe deer in his mouth, Qiu Xin would not have noticed it, it turned out to go out to find food, and it may be very difficult to catch a roe deer in this heavy snow.

Seeing the master standing at the gate of the temple, Xiaobai also ran to him happily, Qiu Xin also laughed happily, coughing and laughing, between the silver-white heaven and earth, one person and one pet, happy to meet.

Brought his thoughts back to Qingsang Mountain, Xiaobai was met in the mulberry forest when he was five years old, when it was still very small, lying in the snow and dying, Qiu Xin couldn't bear it, so he took him back to the grass hut to take care of it, and when it healed, he didn't leave, Qiu Xin searched all over the places in the mountains, and didn't see his parents, and when it grew up, he has been following Qiu Xin, and became Qiu Xin's only playmate in childhood, now it has been more than ten years, after he was injured and comatose yesterday, Xiao Bai has been by his side, sticking out his tongue and licking his face, that kind of warmth makes him moved, and now he braves the cold to catch the roe deer, it is really a partner who is difficult to abandon。

Qiu Xin took Xiao Bai into the temple, the scholar looked up at Qiu Xin, then at Xiao Bai, and saw the roe deer in Xiao Bai's mouth, and then said, "This snow is also loyal to the Lord, and can also find food, so very good, very good." After speaking, he put down the book in his hand, got up and walked towards Qiu Xin, and said, "I see that you are unable to move, so call me to come to wash and peel off." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to the roe deer in Xiaobai's mouth.

Xiao Bai didn't appreciate it, his eyes glared angrily, and he hid to the side, and the scholar saw that he didn't catch it, so he chased Xiao Bai and chased Xiao Bai, just like that, the scholar chased Xiao Bai and ran around in the broken temple, and it was dusty for a while.

At this time, Qiu Xin said, "Xiaobai, give him the things, and when he finishes washing and peeling, we will wait to eat." Hearing the master say this, Xiaobai reluctantly put down the roe deer and returned to Qiu Xin, who continued, "By the way, there is water in the well in the courtyard, and after speaking, he walked to the pillar and sat down."

"Not to mention, Brother Tai's barbecue skills are really good. The scholar looked at the roasted roe deer and said, while swallowing his saliva continuously, at this time Xiaobai also looked at the tempting food with his small eyes open, and he didn't want to leave his gaze.

After a while, the aroma permeated the temple.

"Brother Tai, I see that you are injured, but you still have to eat more. The scholar said so, while quickly eating most of the roe deer in his hand, and looked at Xiaobai, Xiaobai sensed the danger, and took it aside, the scholar laughed dryly, and then stopped talking.

"In Xiajingmo, I don't know my brother's surname. ”

β€œ.........”

"In Xiajingmo, I don't know...... Oh, what did you do to bite me, little brute, see if the master doesn't kill you. ”

"My name is Qiu Xin. ”

"It turned out to be Qiu Gongzi, disrespectful and disrespectful. ”

"I don't have the surname Qiu. ”

"What's your last name? ”

"I don't know. Hearing this, the scholar scratched his head twice and asked, "I don't know where Brother Tai is going?"

"Tarzan. ”

"What are you going to do to Tarzan?"

"Looking for relatives. ”

"It turned out to be an orphan, so I have to know what my last name is, hahaha...... , you bite me again, you stop me, see that I don't roast you and eat you. ”

"Does that brother want to know where I'm going?"

"I don't want to. ”

β€œ......”

"I think I have studied hard for ten years, and now I have to go to Zizhou to catch the exam, and I will definitely be able to enter the department and the first in the future, and shine on the lintel. ”

"Hmm, have you read that book "Jinlinghai Indulges in Death" for ten years?"

"Well, this, everything is inferior, only the reading is high, the reader has to read all the books, in the past, Liu Xia Hui was not messy, and it doesn't hurt to read this book today. ”

"Can you get to the top with that book?"

"Brother Tai's words are wrong, Xiaosheng has read all the four books and five classics, and he has already learned to be rich and five cars, this book is just one of them, and it is not a problem to enter the department. ”

"Do you mean there's still "Golden Vase Plum"?"
