Chapter 90: The Waves
There are only five days left before the prefectural exam, and Lin Xun is still cultivating as before, honing martial arts during the day and refining spiritual power, divine soul and spiritual pattern at night.
He did not change and adjust the rhythm of his life because the government exam was approaching, and he seemed quite calm and calm.
And after Xia Zhi woke up from a serious injury, he also slept during the day as usual, and left alone at night, Lin Xun didn't have to guess to know that every time the little girl went out at night, there would inevitably be an underworld gang in this civilian area.
In general, the 49th courtyard seems to be no different from the past, but in the eastern city, there have been many major events in the past few days, which have caused a sensation in the city.
First of all, Yao Tuohai, a famous man, is now in the east of the city, about to serve as the chief examiner, presiding over the upcoming government examination.
Because of Yao Tuohai's coming, the number of cultivators who had to participate in this government examination skyrocketed a lot, and the assessment had not yet begun, and the number of applicants had exceeded 8,000!
Only about half of them belonged to the local cultivators of Donglin City, while the other half were cultivators who came from other cities, all of whom came in the name of Muyao Tuohai.
Because of this incident, Dedong Lincheng suddenly became more lively than before, and almost all the streets and alleys were talking about what Yao Tuohai was doing this for.
At the same time, the news that a member of the Iron Blood Army in the western frontier of the empire escorted a mysterious young man to Donglin City caused another uproar in Donglin City, which was already full of rumors.
Predator!
This is an elite army that shocks the empire, and it belongs to the "Iron King" of the imperial military department.
Ning Bugui is a legendary powerhouse in the empire, and the Iron Blood Army is a legendary army in the imperial army, but now there is a team of members of the Iron Blood Army to escort a teenager to Donglin City, you can imagine what a big sensation it will cause.
Why are the Predators here?
What did they escort the boy for?
Everyone was speculating and discussing, but no one was able to give an accurate answer.
Even the well-informed major forces in Donglin City were confused by this and were a little at a loss.
Yao Tuohai is here, and he wants to personally preside over the government examination in Donglin City, but everyone knows that Yao Tuohai's real purpose will definitely not be so simple.
The arrival of the Iron Guard, and the arrival of a teenager, made it even more difficult to see what they were going to do.
All this makes the situation in the east city cover a layer of confusing colors, and also makes the atmosphere of the east city become treacherous.
......
Shi Ding Zhai.
Su was stunned at night, and a pair of eyebrows had been tightly locked at some point, looking preoccupied.
In her hand, there was an urgent message sent several hours ago, and the information came from the headquarters of Shi Dingzhai in the Forbidden City, the imperial capital, but there was only an ominous line on the information.
"There will be a big man arriving in Donglin City in the near future, remember to be careful!"
Just because of this sentence, Mu Wansu became uneasy, who is this big man? Why was he able to alarm the headquarters of Shi Dingzhai in the Forbidden City, the imperial capital, and did not hesitate to send such an urgent information?
Even in this information, even the name of the big man did not dare to mark it?
Intuition told Mu Wansu that this matter was not simple!
She remembered Yao Tuohai, who suddenly appeared in Donglin City and wanted to preside over the government examination in person, and also remembered the young man who was escorted to Donglin City by the iron-blooded guard.
Don't...... They are all here for this "big shot"?
Realizing this, Mu Wansu couldn't help but take a deep breath of cold air, Yao Tuohai's identity was already extremely powerful, and in the entire southwest province of the empire, only the Metropolitan Governor Liu Wujun could keep pace with Yao Tuohai.
And the young man who was sent by the Iron Guard, the identity is only afraid that it is even more unusual, that Iron Blood Guard belongs to the tiger and wolf division under the command of the Iron Blood Wei Ning Bugui! This young man can be escorted by the Iron Guard, how can the identity be simple?
If they are all here for the "big man", it can be inferred from this that the identity of the "big man" is so terrifying and terrifying.
And such a big man, why did he come to Donglin City?
The more Su thought about it, the more uneasy he became, and for the first time he felt a little unable to see through the situation in Donglincheng.
......
Four days later, in the early morning.
Lin Xun had breakfast and didn't cultivate again, he felt that his physical cultivation had once again encountered a bottleneck, and he planned to go to the Donglin Martial Arts Hall to test his physical strength to what extent.
Leaving the civilian area and walking into the bustling street, Lin Xun clearly felt that compared with the past, the eastern city has become more and more lively, and cultivators can be seen everywhere, and the topic of government examination and assessment is discussed everywhere.
Because early tomorrow morning, this time the government exam will kick off in Donglin Academy!
Lin Xun didn't worry about anything about the government exam, he was ready, and all that was left was to wait for the assessment to begin.
Not long after, Lin Xun came to the Donglin Martial Arts Hall, and after paying ten silver coins, he was led into the "Martial Arts Room" by a small servant respectfully.
The space in this martial arts refining room is huge, like a small martial arts training ground, and there are many copper puppets distributed in it.
The so-called copper puppet, in the final analysis, is a kind of spiritual weapon integrated into the mechanism, the body of the puppet is made of hard spiritual material ore, and finally the spirit pattern master carves a unique spirit pattern inside the puppet, so that the puppet can act independently through the mechanism and spiritual power source inside the puppet.
Some powerful copper puppets can even fight like real cultivators!
However, the copper puppets in the Donglin Martial Arts Hall are just ordinary goods, and they can only perform some simple actions, and their biggest role is to test the martial arts strength of cultivators.
......
At the same time that Lin Xun entered the Donglin Lianwu Hall, in the depths of the three thousand mountains thousands of miles away from the Donglin City, the mountains here were reckless, the sea of clouds was steaming, and the people were inaccessible.
Suddenly, under the blue sky, a strange team appeared.
At the front of the procession was a group of men dressed in imperial court dresses, but the color of their dresses was not lilac, but a black as deep as night.
There were sixteen men in all, divided into two columns to lead the way, with a solemn and solemn demeanor, and even when they walked in the sky and clouds, they maintained an almost harsh posture.
It seems that what they are stepping on is not a void cloud, but a flat and solid avenue, every step out, every small movement of walking, all maintain a unique rhythm, neat, the same!
Only Spirit Sea Realm cultivators can fly in the sky, but not all Spirit Sea Realm cultivators can maintain the strength to walk in the clouds.
Even if you can step through the clouds, you can't necessarily be like these sixteen men in black court dresses, all of whom maintain the same pace and speed as a ruler!
But these sixteen men who had obviously cultivated to the Spirit Sea Realm and possessed terrifying power were just the role of a team of trailblazers at this moment.
Because behind them, a carriage followed.
The carriage is completely black, and I don't know what kind of material it is made of, and the surface is engraved with an obscure spiritual pattern like a dense sea, and there is a dark and gloomy atmosphere like eternal night under the blue sky.
Pulling the carriage were six black horses, their eyes were blue, like ghost fire, and there was a single horn on their heads, like the legendary unicorns, but the unicorns were white, and these six black horses were pure black, but they looked like ghost horses running out of hell!
Above the reckless mountains, under the blue sky, a team wearing black court dresses and a black carriage as deep as eternal night suddenly appeared.
Phew!
In the extreme distance of the heavenly dome, a loud cry sounded, shaking the sky, and in just an instant, a black shadow rushed to the side of the carriage.
It was a strange black bird, with four claws, wings as black as iron, eyes like gold, and a seemingly small body, but it exuded a terrifying ferocity.
However, in just an instant, with a bang, I saw that this black strange bird suddenly exploded, transforming into a slender old man, wearing a black court dress, and his long hair was combed neatly!
"Miss, the old slave has been searching for a long time, but has not found a clue, someone should have deliberately destroyed all traces, we came too late. ”
The old man bowed slightly, his voice was mellow, his demeanor was polite, and his perfection was impeccable.
"Hmm. ”
In the black carriage, a hoarse female voice full of unique magnetism came out, "As expected, for the things of the past, it has surprised me that they can endure until now." ”
The old man was silent.
In the middle of the sound, the hoarse magnetic voice in the black carriage sounded again: "The Heavenly Sacrifice once said that there is a peerless treasure descending in these three thousand mountains, have you heard?"
The old man bowed and said, "I heard, it is said that Xiao Jianjun Xie Yutang has confirmed that this matter does not exist. ”
"Oh, it's that little guy from the Xie family in Wuyi Lane in the Forbidden City?"
"Exactly. ”
"This son is also considered lucky. ”
Speaking of this, the hoarse magnetic voice suddenly paused, and immediately saw that the curtain on the side of the black carriage was lifted, and a white and beautiful jade hand was stretched out.
The hand is delicate, slender, and immaculately white, and on the impeccable tail finger is a ring inlaid with a strange black gemstone, as if it were an open black vertical eye, which makes people shudder.
The beautiful one pointed into the distance: "Where is the front?"
The old man said: "Miss, ahead is one of the destinations of our trip, Donglincheng, according to the current speed, we can arrive in three hours." ”
"The city is on the east...... Interesting ......"
The hoarse magnetic voice seemed a little erratic, as if it sensed something, and it was hard to fathom.
