Although the process of apprenticeship is far from over, for example, Ye Yian still needs to give Dr. Li a presentation ceremony, but after all, the names of both parties have been decided, and the atmosphere when they sat down to have tea again was different than before.

Before he knew it, Dr. Li had already taken up his master's airs, and his words were not as warm and friendly as before. His whole body was full of the dignity of the teacher - the strict teacher in the Imperial College is back.

Although Ye Yian also knew that this was the norm for teachers nowadays, he still felt a little awkward. Such a serious teacher had a very different style than his previous master, Ye Tianwen, and it is inevitable that he was a little uncomfortable now.

During the question, Dr. Li felt quite regretful when he saw that Ye Yian had no plans to live in the mountains and forests for a long time, but he did not force himself. He just went up the mountain every ten days to check his studies, and also made a list of books and assigned learning tasks accordingly.

Ye Yian was respectful and said for a while. After talking, the pot of fried tea that Dr. Li cooked by himself was exhausted and it was dark.

Seeing this, Ye Yian stood up and said goodbye. Dr. Li just asked for help when he couldn't stay. He just told him to be careful when going down the mountain, so that he would not be frivolous during these ten days, otherwise he would never show mercy when checking his studies. The ruler that had accompanied him for many years was set up for you.

In the Zhongnan Mountains, Ye Yian walked alone. At first, he deliberately drove the magic of shrinking the ground into an inch. When the elixir power had flowed, his heart suddenly moved, abandoned this idea and walked down the mountain.

The night wind is light and cold, the night moon is bright, and the leaves are easy to walk slowly in the famous mountains of Zhongnan, and in the quiet and quiet, I feel the long-lost leisure.

It's indeed a long time ago!

The last time I had such a mood and feeling was the old thing I had when I was in the Kojiu Valley of Fog Hidden Mountain more than six years ago.

Flowers are similar every year, and people are different every year. Time is like water, and more than six years have passed in a blink of an eye.

These six years...hey, I can't bear to look back...

Ye Yian didn't want to ruin his rare good mood since he entered Chang'an. He was so happy that he dissipated all the memories that had emerged in his hand. He responded to the relaxed steps and moonlight under his feet, and chanted Wang Mojie's famous work "Bird Singing Stream" that was exactly the same as the current situation:

People are idle when the osmanthus flowers fall, and the spring mountains are quiet at night. The moon rises and birds are shocked, and the spring stream is singing.

Just after chanting a quatrain, Ye Yian's quiet heart, which suddenly rolled like a strong wind in his heart, and in an instant, the wind and clouds surged.

He was targeted!

I don’t know if it was the person who intentionally or Ye Yian’s senses were too sharp, but in short, it was almost synchronized with the last line of poetry just now, and he clearly felt that he was being stared at.

This sudden sense was so cold, just like a wolf that would suddenly suck at any time, following his footsteps. The wolf followed his footsteps and followed him. Although it had not yet exploded, its sharp teeth that were shining with cold light under the moonlight and the mouth fluid that was coveting between the teeth was vividly visible, especially those eyes, the eyes that were always staring at the vital points on the neck were almost clearly visible.

In an instant, Ye Yian's back skin suddenly tensed, and a strong impulse surged deep in the heart lake where the strong wind swelled - the impulse to drive out the Sky-Splitting Ghost Sword and turn around and tear the corpse of this venomous snake-like person.

In the wilderness, this feeling of being watched is definitely not good. The continuous tension and the tension and pressure brought by it are swaying like a black cloud pressing down on the city, which in turn further pushes up the tension in the mood.

Knowing that it is, but not turning around to watch, this unknown is precisely the root cause of the terror of human hearts.

At this moment, if you talk about Ye Yian's feelings, you are experiencing a disaster that makes practitioners most afraid and thrilling.

Even so, Ye Yian still tried his best to suppress the impulse that surged in his heart. While trying his best to calm his mind, he not only did not look back, but also maintained his figure and even stride with great perseverance.

Because he knew that this was a trap!

The sudden sensation was so cold that although it was so mysterious that it could only be understood but not expressed in words, Ye Yian was already very clear and certain. The root of all this was Xu Ke, who was invisible to see him.

This guy is really too suspicious. He has done so much before but has not dispelled his doubts!

The sudden and intense feeling was undoubtedly the result of Xu Ke's intentional act - throwing a stone to ask for directions, this guy was thinking of using this to force his true identity.

Xu Ke's test of throwing stones was very exquisite. If a practitioner could definitely sense it, on the contrary, if he was just an ordinary scholar in the world, he would definitely not be able to sense it. At most, he would only feel the night wind in the mountains was a little colder.

The sickness of the silence always looked very evident about his appearance, but because of the special nature of the "Chrysanthemum and Butterfly Art", it was difficult to detect clearly. Therefore, this scene happened at this moment.

As long as Ye Yian reacts a little slow, or turns back because he can't stand the mountain pressure and fear brought by the continuous tension of his mind, then all his identity cover-ups he had done in Dr. Li's house will be wasted, and he will be followed closely by the thunder attack that Xu Ke has already prepared for his move.

There is a knife on the head of the word "名", but at this time, the most beneficial thing to Ye Yian is only "名". This is a battle that starts from no reason and comes from invisible, and both sides will not even touch each other.

A War of Hearts!

It seemed that nothing had changed, and it seemed that Xu Ke had never appeared at all. Ye Yian continued to walk down the mountain with almost no difference from the moment, and continued to chant another more suitable masterpiece of Wang Mojie, "Zhongnan Mountain":

Taiyi is close to Tiandu, connecting mountains to the corner of the sea. The white clouds look back and the green mist is gone.

The peaks change in the wilderness, and the clouds and valleys are different. If you want to go to someone to stay, you will ask the woodcutter across the water.

On a moonlit night in the famous mountain, the robe is floating. The clear sound of reciting poems has become more and more poetic to the quiet environment. Ye Yian, who is walking, seems to be a scholar who admires the mountains and rivers but does not hesitate to travel at night. There is a strong romantic and bookish atmosphere in the pine shadows of the mountain wind.

Under this Fengyi who was looking out of the world, no one knew that his heart strings were tensed to the point where he was about to break suddenly, and his mind was consumed with such a battle of life and death.

Just as I was halfway through "Zhongnan Mountain", the most fragile neck of my body suddenly felt a biting chill, and I even heard the sudden sound of wind blades breaking through the air.

Finally, the War of Heart reached its most intense climax. Xu Ke had already seen the dagger and drove the magic to condense the wind into a knife, and used this invisible blade to attack Ye Yian's neck.

Although this knife is invisible, it is definitely not inferior to any famous tool in the world when it comes to sharpness.

With this sharpness, the fragile flesh and blood on the neck, the moment the two intersected, Ye Yian's head flew away.

Looking back...or not to go back?

Danli Shield Drive...or not drive?

At that moment, Ye Yian was still making intense analysis and struggling, but his body burst out with an instinct that was almost unstoppable impulse.

The urge to look back! The urge to dodge immediately!

The sudden contradiction between rational trade-offs and torture and physical instinctive impulses was like a thunder cloud storm exploding deep in the heart lake. The collision caused by the mind made Ye Yian's eyes turn black in an instant.

This blow is too heavy!

After all, the tenacious will trained by the Black Prison prevailed. Ye Yian did not turn around, did not dodge, nor did he drive the Dan power shield.

Since you have entered this War of Hearts and have bets in this big bet, you can make no regrets and fight for a clear result in life and death.

As a result... he won the bet!

The wind blade that can be transformed into magic light flashed, and it was determined quickly, just a piece of paper between Ye Yi'an's skin between his neck.

At this moment, Ye Yian's distance from life and death was only a piece of paper.

Just then, Ye Yian spitted out the last sentence "Ask the woodcutter through the water" and then raised his hand and slapped it on the back of his neck with a loud bang, "How strange! Why are there mosquitoes in the mountains at this time? That's so strange!"

As he raised his hand, the wind blade dissolved according to the momentum and turned into a fresh breeze in the mountains again.

As he murmured, Ye Yian continued to go down, and then chanted another popular poem in his mouth, still elegance and still scattered.

The invisible thing about the Story of the Story of the Heart War that Ye Yian was about to vomit blood was over. There was no clue that the wind blade shattered in the blink of an eye, and the cold cold suddenly disappeared, and the world returned to the moon and the white wind.

All the abnormalities that Ye Yian sensed disappeared, and the pressure that came from the sky that made people suffocate instantly subsided. It was not until this time that a thin piece of sweat that had already emanated but was suppressed from his forehead.

After pressing back the long breath that was about to blurt out, Ye Yian sang like nothing, walking down the Zhongnan Mountain, which was destined to be unforgettable. It was not until the next day when he passed Lindemen and stood on the bustling streets of Zhuque Street that his heart was completely relieved.

Then, on the street of Zhuque, where people were coming and going, a proud smile appeared on the corner of Ye Yian's mouth.

Although the process was thrilling and was once on the verge of life and death, at this time he could finally say that he was the final winner in this formless and invisible strange battle.

He...winned!

More importantly, after this battle, the actions from Xuke to cautious were enough to make him judge. Behind Xuke's deliberate approach and agitation to Dr. Li, there must be a deep intention.

Considering those philology books and materials, this carefulness is related to cloud literature.

However, Xu Ke's cautious nature can pick Dr. Li. Although he doesn't know what the reason is, Ye Yian has a vague enlightenment - perhaps, the thread that had been broken on Xu Gongda's body was connected again unintentionally.

Xuke - Dr. Li - Ye Yian, the first time I entered Chang'an, it was really something that I encountered without intention. It has become more and more interesting!

Should we tell Dr. Li about the ancient characters engraved on the tortoise shell and animal bones earlier than the bronze inscriptions? If we want to tell, how should we not arouse suspicion of false doubts?

In addition, what attitude should we use to get along with the vain in the future? This is very likely to be a long process.

Thinking about this all the way, Ye Yian arrived at the address that Xu Xiang gave him yesterday.

This is a small residence that covers a small area but is very fresh and elegant inside. It is not known that it may be a property that is built in the city to facilitate after leaving the palace.

There was an old couple in the house who were responsible for the care. Ye Yian was welcomed after reporting his name. The food arrangements of the residence were quickly arranged, which made Ye Yian extremely satisfied.

It was not until the afternoon when the twilight was in the morning that Xu Xiang came in from outside and asked where Ye Yian had visited and what scenery he saw today. It also showed that he should have arrived at the Sutra Hall early this morning.

After observing his words, he didn't know that he had not returned last night. Ye Yian carefully explained some things, talking about Dr. Li's seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain, and Xu Ke who lived next to him. He just didn't mention those philology books, let alone the thrilling experience of last night.

After saying that, Ye Yian asked Xu Xiang about Xu Ke’s background.

"Xuke..." Xu Xiang recited the Taoist name several times, and after pondering for a long time, he shook his head, "I have never heard of this person."

"Don't know?" Hearing this, Ye Yian felt unconcealed disappointment.

At this time, Xu Yi laughed, saying that there are no less than a hundred Taoist temples in Chang'an City, and there are more than ten thousand Taoists. If there are more parts on the outskirts of the city, how could he know it all?

"If the immortal elder is good, please ask what this person is?" Ye Yian said slowly: "I look like the origin of a practitioner who lives next to my master."

"This Xu is a divine channel!"

Xu Xiang became a little more serious, then nodded, clearly agreeing to Ye Yian's proposal to check Xu Ke's background. It is really unique to do such a thing as a Taoist worshiper in Ziji Palace.

After nodding, Xu Xiang suddenly explained something, "Master? Mr. Yuchao accepted you as his disciple?"

Yu Chao is the name of Dr. Li, and as for the gentleman, he is a respectful title to him. Ye Yian nodded when he heard the question and explained the process of the divine turning point in detail.

After hearing this, Xu Xiang laughed out loud, "You are really self-inflicted! Mr. Yuchao has been famous for 30 years. He has a deep knowledge and is good at studying. He is one of the few scholars in the world. For many years, he wants to worship his disciples. Why do you accept such an apprentice who is destined to be unintentional in learning?"

At this point, Xu Xiang couldn't help but smile and shook his head, "Mr. Yuchao has really met someone bad, but it's a good deal for you. With such a master here, what are you afraid of the assessment of the Sutra Hall after March?"

For those who have developed these threads of Ziji Palace in various Daozhous in the world, it is not easy to come to the scripture hall, and it is even more difficult to leave the scripture hall. After learning the scriptures, there will be assessments. If you can't pass it, it means passing by an extremely important opportunity in your life. On the contrary, if you take the exam well, you will naturally be valued by Ziji Palace. The equivalent of this is a higher rank, more power and even benefits.

When Ye Yian laughed, he also laughed. After laughing, he took the opportunity to make another request and help him find a Ba Jie Juzi's identity from the East of Shannan.

Ye Yian's intention was to try his best to confirm his identity in Zhongnan Mountain to deal with possible investigations of the possibility of Wukao; but Wukao only thought he was afraid of showing off his stuff in front of Dr. Li, and laughed at him for his own hardship again.

The informant of Ziji Palace often needs to hide his identity. This is not difficult for the vain, but he also said that he could conceal his identity for this. Ye Yian, don’t really have any idea of ​​the imperial examination. The imperial examination is a ceremony for the imperial examination. It is a first-class matter and cannot be messed up!

Ye Yian was amused by the serious warning of Xu Xiang. If he passed the imperial examination, he could achieve the great way of Jindan? Since he could not, why should he go?

That night, Xu Xiang stayed here, and took Ye Yian to the scripture hall early the next morning.

Therefore, Ye Yian began his school career that he had never experienced before.
Chapter completed!
