Xiao Shaobai and his sister depended on each other and lived in the west end of the village.
Wang Susu and the others first found Jiang Tian. Jiang Tian was a few years older than them. After graduating from social studies, he was not good at literature or martial arts, but he became a famous hunting king in the area. He once went into the mountains one night and hunted three tigers and two wild goats.
, was praised by others.
Now he has opened an inn in Luo County and is considered to be successful at a young age. This time he happened to go back to Qingbai Mountain to see his old friends.
Perhaps because they are both lonely people, these people often play together.
The four of them packed up roast chicken and roasted goose, and went to Xiao Shaobai's house with wine in hand.
Xiao Yiyi opened the door with red eyes. Jiang Tian smelled the strong smell of medicine and was shocked, "Yiyi, what happened?"
Xiao Yiyi burst into tears when she saw that she was a familiar brother and sister, "My brother was caught by a wolf and is now lying on the bed."
Wang Susu and others had a feeling. Could it be that something happened while hunting in the mountains yesterday?
Jiang Tian had already rushed through the door, "Brother, what's wrong with you? Why didn't you notify us!"
Xiao Shaobai looked at the four people who came over in surprise, with a gentle smile, "This little injury is nothing, I'm still not going to die."
"You really are..." Zhou Yiru patted his hand, "If you have anything to say, we'll be here."
"Yeah." Xiao Shaobai turned around and sniffed, "It smells good. There's wine and food. You guys understand me. Bring it over quickly."
"Go away." He Guangzhi gave the things to Xiao Yiyi, "You'd better lie down well. Is this what you can eat now?"
"Yiyi, hurry up and hide it to eat, and bring a bowl of porridge to your brother by the way." The little girl sighed and ran to the kitchen with a smile on her face. She really felt that it was great for her brother to have such friends.
Over there, Xiao Shaobai sighed, "If you make friends carelessly, you won't even give me meat to eat."
A few people laughed and laughed for a while, and Wang Susu brought up the business, "Brother Shao Bai, you see Yiyi is still young, and what she can do is limited if anything happens. You were injured this time, and there is no one to take care of you. Why don't you think about it and find someone for us?"
A sister-in-law."
Xiao Shaobai was silent for a while. He used to think that cultivators have ambitions in all directions, and having a family and a Taoist couple is a constraint. But this time he was seriously injured, and he also figured out that it is better to have someone at home.
If he can take care of Yiyi, take care of the housework, and leave a son to inherit the family, he can pursue his own martial arts with peace of mind.
"Does Susu have any good candidates?"
"Susu thinks Lan Xinting's Yu Sheng is pretty good. She has a beautiful personality. Although she is a bit aloof, her cultivation talent is not good. At most, she is just foundation building material, so she is suitable for her home."
Xiao Shaobai also heard Yu Sheng's name, and his heart was slightly moved. Moreover, she was as helpless as him and had the same family background.
Being aloof is not a problem. She has no father or brother, so when she gets to her own home, she doesn't have to rely on herself.
However, "Can she agree?"
Zhou Yiru said, "Just keep looking, we are here to help."
"Brother Shao Bai, don't forget, you are a descendant of Xiao Bohou. It is a high achievement to be married to you." Wang Susu reminded, "Besides, my uncle once saved Master Qin's life, didn't he? As the saying goes, a teacher is like a father, you
As long as you invite Master Qin and find a good matchmaker, your parents' orders for a matchmaker will be fulfilled."
Jiang Tian thought this was a good thing, and patted his chest and said, "Brother, if you get married, I will pay for the bride price and give you a ten-mile red makeup."
Xiao Shaobai had already made up his mind, "Let me recover from my injuries."
A few people looked at it and saw that there was something going on.
After chatting for a while, everyone said goodbye.
Jiang Tian thought of something before leaving, and turned back and said, "Brother, I bought a wolf skin and thief stick this morning. I will make it into soft armor and give it to you. I'm waiting for you to show off in the martial arts exam in three months."
Guangcai, enter the martial arts academy and give us a long face."
Xiao Shaobai was moved in his heart, "Definitely."
That day Zhan Changfeng met Mr. Yang Ming and applied for admission. After being asked about Beacon Mountain, she returned to her residence and picked up a book to read. She learned about the geography, customs and history of this world.
I already have a general understanding of politics and the ways of the world, and I am ready to go out in the field in terms of knowledge reserves. It is enough to wait for the selection of the Sixth Academy.
The six academies are actually different. The Junzi Academy mainly teaches magic, the Wanxiu Academy is popular in music, the Yuling Academy is about envoys of spirits, and the Mechanical Academy. The Martial Arts Academy is as its name suggests, and there is also a Baicao Academy that trains doctors.
I heard that behind each courtyard there is a corresponding upper realm sect, but the specific sects are unknown.
They set the age limit for selection at six to thirteen years old. The biggest reason is that this age group already has a certain degree of autonomy, but is still in an ignorant stage and has not yet begun to truly practice Taoism. It has strong plasticity.
However, the age limit is one of the regular standards. Except for the Junzi Court, which is stricter on this standard, the other five courts will determine it depending on the situation.
For example, if the Yulingyuan thinks that your psychic talent can blur the age standard, it will accept it.
Another example is the Martial Arts Academy. In addition to accepting disciples during the enrollment period of the Sixth Academy, it also conducts martial arts examinations in advance to select a group of monks who have passed the age.
Zhan Changfeng has considered taking the martial arts exam directly to enter the martial arts academy, but considering her actual situation, it is not suitable to enter the martial arts academy. After all, her physical body is incomplete and her true energy cannot be greatly moved.
Therefore, she is more optimistic about Yulingyuan and Baicaoyuan. The former is because she has clairvoyance and has certain advantages over ghosts and gods. The latter is because she has access to rare herbs and formulas, and she may be able to find a solution to her physical problems.
But these are all things later, not what she needs to consider now.
After getting Kong, Zhan Changfeng went to Gong Qixian to express his gratitude, but he didn't know what kind of disease this famous person in Zhulou had. He was wearing a stand-up collar on a hot day, and asked her if she wanted to go to the temple with him to ask for amulets.
In addition, things on Bijia Mountain have been suppressed, and neither the villagers nor the people in the social sciences know much about it. However, Cheng Zhigao, who sent the money, said that in order to prevent the wolves from going down the mountain to retaliate, the instructors squatted at the foot of Bijia Mountain for ten years.
a few days.
In more than ten days, the semi-annual exam for social studies has arrived.
After answering the questions and putting away her pen and ink, Zhan Changfeng left. Because of the wolf incident, Beacon Mountain was temporarily closed, and she couldn't hunt, so she turned her attention to Good Medicine Mountain.
Some herbs are more valuable than fur and can be regarded as a money-making tool.
She identified all the varieties of herbal medicines and inquired about the routes into the mountains and the distribution of common herbs. She carried a medicine basket on her back, a sword on her shoulder, and a small hoe and headed into the mountains.
To collect herbs, you usually go into the mountain early in the morning and spend the whole day searching. You don’t go there at night. After all, the mountain road in Haoyaoshan is difficult to walk, the peaks are steep, and there are obstacles in the depths.
It's just that apart from planting in spring and harvesting in autumn, and worshiping gods and worshiping gods, social studies don't take a vacation. Zhan Changfeng can only go there during the period from Shen Shi to sunset when it's still dark.
But one or two hours was a little short after all, and it wasn't enough for her to go far.
The usual inspections are reviewed by the teacher alone, but this half-yearly exam is conducted by the whole social studies department. This assessment is divided into three days. The first two days include the literary test in the morning, review in the afternoon, and the third day focuses on the practice inspection.
She didn't care much about the review, she just felt that she finally had a whole afternoon to go into the mountains.
The herbs in Haoyao Mountain grow very well and have many varieties, which are unmatched by the other two mountains.
Zhan Changfeng's six senses are very sensitive. As soon as he entered the mountain, he felt a refreshing comfort. He didn't know what was unique about this mountain.
When she met two herb collectors, they both walked away alone without saying a word. This is similar to hunters. Generally speaking, hunters will not tell others about the haunts and habitats of wild beasts, and neither will the herb collectors.
Tell them where and what herbs grow.
Zhan Changfeng didn't stay too long and went directly to the last location.
When she came here for the first time, she looked for herbs in one direction. Gradually she felt more comfortable, and then marked the place where she finally stopped. The next time she came, she would start exploring directly from this place, and then mark it again.
After repeating this many times, she discovered a pattern. The more comfortable she went to the southwest, the greater the possibility of finding herbal medicines. The quality of herbal medicines was slightly higher than that found in other places in the mountains.
