Chapter 7. Behind the Spirit

"Erniu, why are you here?" Li Xianyuan spoke, his expression as plain as ever, just like a passerby who was unfamiliar to each other.

The one who was called Erniu was a strong boy, wearing straw sandals, and carrying an empty basket behind him. He was very excited when he saw Li Xianyuan, and he didn't care about his ordinaryness and smiled honestly: "My brothers and I came to the county market. I heard that Tong Sheng was today, so I will see you."

"You are the only one?" Li Xianyuan's eyes were around Erniu and looked behind him.

"I'm afraid I can't catch up, so I ran over first. They are behind." Erniu said. Only then did Li Xianyuan notice that crystal sweat beads were hanging on his dark face.

"Xianyuan, is he?" A voice came from the slanting ground. When Ji Canghai saw Li Xianyuan return to the crowd, he hurriedly squeezed over and approached him. He was intimate like a childhood sweetheart.

"Wei Erniu, from Yangjia Village, went to a private school with me." Li Xianyuan explained to Ji Canghai. They were also a part of their childhood. Or they were 'going to play with Li Xianyuan since they were young, but Li Xianyuan ignored' to become 'grown'.

Wei Erniu went to the private school for only two years before going home to farm. Even so, he was the most knowledgeable among his brothers.

Erniu stared at Ji Canghai for a long time before he came to his senses and murmured, "What a beautiful sister... Xianyuan, who is she?"

"Click on the road..." As soon as he said that, his sleeve was pulled a few times. Li Xianyuan lowered his head and saw Ji Canghai pulling his sleeve, his eyes full of begging.

"don't want……"

Li Xianyuan was stunned and sighed in her heart and said to Erniu: "Her name is Ji Canghai, and she has a engagement with me."

"Xianyuan..." A very gentle call came from beside him, and Ji Canghai's face was full of shame, and his bright eyes seemed to be able to speak, staring straight at Li Xianyuan. He just wanted Li Xianyuan not to tell him his identity, but he didn't think so...

Ji Canghai's heart was pounding, and he was excited to hold Li Xianyuan's arm, rubbing his little head around, regardless of the crowd around him staring at him.

Anyway, they are still just 12 or 13 years old, and no one will come out to say that they are not decent.

Erniu quietly gave Li Xianyuan a thumbs up: "No wonder you are never interested in Yadan. It turns out that there is a beautiful woman."

Li Xianyuan wanted to pull out his arm, but Ji Canghai hugged him too tightly and could not break free for a while, so he had to let him go.

The team is still long, so I don’t rush to return to the team. Moreover, the clingy spirit of Canghai has not dissipated, so I can’t drag him to queue up.

The two talked a few more times, Erniu looked at Li Xianyuan up and down, and smiled teasingly, "I haven't seen you for a while, Xianyuan, you are much more enthusiastic."

"Hey?!" Ji Canghai, who had been tired of being shy, dared not look up because of his shyness, widened his eyes and said incredibly: "Xianyuan seems to be wearing a human skin mask all day long, not smiling seriously. Do you think he is enthusiastic?!"

No matter how you hear this, it doesn't seem like praise.

Erniu said mysteriously: "You don't know. In the past, I didn't see him say a few words in the village for a month. I stayed in the mountain and the ruined temple all day and ignored him. It was like... like..."

He raised his head and thought about the appropriate words for a long time, clapped his hands and said: It's like a clay boy in the view!"

"Clay-sculpted boy?" Ji Canghai looked up at Wang Yao, probably thinking that the metaphor was very appropriate, and he looked like he was holding back his smile.

Erniu explained: "That is to say that he is like Wuxin, and he will never have any expression. Many children in the village are afraid of him... Look, that's it!"

After the words came, he pointed at Li Xianyuan, and Li Xianyuan stared at him with calm eyes.

Ji Canghai thought about it in a random way. Before, Li Xianyuan was indifferent, but now he gradually began to speak more and more. Could it be that these changes are because of himself...

"It's not because of you." Li Xianyuan spoke before Ji Canghai thought too far away.

Ji Canghai gave Li Xianyuan a blank look and said angrily: "Can't you make me happy for a while?"

After a few quarrels, someone shouted at the top of his throat: "Second."

A strong figure squeezed over, and this time it was Ji Canghai's turn to be stunned.

"Why did one more come out?" His eyes kept wandering between Erniu and the person coming.

Li Xianyuan said: "He is Sanniu. Their quadruplets gave birth to four brothers, and they all looked similar."

Sanniu said: "I am worthy of being Brother Xianyuan, I recognize me at a glance. Unlike the second brother, I still can't tell us clearly for so many years."

He and Erniu stood together and were carved out from the same mold. The only difference was that he didn't carry a basket.

"Who are you calling me? You're not big or small." Erniu glared at Sanniu. "Why didn't the boss and the fourth brother come?"

Sanniu replied: "The eldest brother and the fourth brother couldn't move when they saw someone playing tricks on the street, so they had to do it themselves."

"These two gangsters." Erniu complained and bowed to Li Xianyuan: "Then I wish Xianyuan's victory now. Let's go back to the village first."

Li Xianyuan bowed his hand to return the gift.

Sanniu turned around and wanted to leave the crowd, but accidentally stepped on someone's shoes.

"I'm so sorry, I've stepped on your shoes dirty." Sanniu quickly looked up and apologized.

This is a young man, wearing a handsome face in brocade clothes and a gentle smile as gentle as jade.

"Walk and look a little bit, it's broken..." The servant stood up and taught a lesson. The young man reached out to stop him and chuckled: "It's not a big deal, forget it."

Although he was laughing, there was no wave in his eyes, and there was no emotional fluctuation.

"Thank you, young master, you are such a good person." Sanniu said silly. Erniu also quickly apologized and pulled Sanniu away from the crowd.

After they left, the young man smiled, waved his hand to call his servant, turned his head and whispered something in his ear.

"I understand little." The servant bowed and squeezed into the crowd and disappeared.

After giving the instructions, the young man took a folding fan and looked at Li Xianyuan with a graceful look.

"I recognize you."

"Is that right?" Li Xianyuan replied calmly, the person in front of him had a smile on his face, but gave him a very fake feeling.

"Now is not the time to speak." The young man closed the folding fan, tapped the entrance of the examination room lightly, and then bowed: "It's time to go, I wish my brother the best."

Li Xianyuan also bowed to the smiley person: "Borrow a good word."

"I'm waiting for you here." Ji Canghai said softly, Li Xianyuan looked at him, his eyes faded a little, he nodded slightly and walked out of the crowd, and lined up in a line that was not long.

It was Wang Yao's turn soon. The yamen runner routinely searched his back and handed the number plate with the numbers written on it to Li Xianyuan. He looked down and looked at him. B23.

Li Xianyuan put away the exam card and was about to step inside. However, the invigilator in front of the door spoke lightly: "You can't enter."

Li Xianyuan was stunned, retracted her legs that were entering the threshold, and looked at the invigilator in confusion.

The examiner was tall, wearing a light gray gown, and his bronze skin didn't look like a literati, but more like a martial artist. He glanced at Wang Yao and said with a strong voice: "You can enter."

Then his eyes narrowed slightly, and he walked around Wang Yao and looked behind him, where there was nothing.

"You can't go in."

Li Xianyuan looked back at the empty man behind him, wondering who he was talking to.

"I'm not polite if I don't retire." After a few breaths, the examiner shouted coldly, pulled out a purple wood brush from the cuff, and was about to take action.

"Let's wait!" Li Xianyuan quickly stopped his actions and turned to Kong Kongru'er's face and said, "You go back first, and I will visit you naturally after I finish the exam."

After no response for a while, Li Xianyuan turned his head slightly to look at the examiner.

“Is it gone?”

The examiner looked at Wang Yao with great interest: "Let's go, can you see her?"

"I can't see." Li Xianyuan shook his head.

"Then do you know her?"

"I don't know the name yet."

The examiner shook his head and chuckled: "It's interesting, go in."

"Yes..." Li Xianyuan bowed and stepped into the threshold.

As the last person entered the examination room, the Jinyi Guard standing beside the examiner stood out and shouted loudly on the stairs.

"Children enter the venue and close the courtyard behind closed doors! Those who are good at approaching will kill—no—pardon!”

Behind Li Xianyuan, the two vermilion doors slowly closed. With a loud bang, the tight slits were completely closed.
