"Who are these two warriors?" Zhou An walked over and asked.
"They are the famous Qinghe Shuangsha. They are people who are on different sides in Qinghe County. They just made enemies in Qinghe, so they came to our ancient county. If I hadn't had an old relationship with them before, otherwise they wouldn't have come.
." Guo'er said in an introduction.
"Second Young Master Zhou An has met these two seniors in Zhou Zhou Mansion. I would like to thank these two seniors for coming to join me in Zhou Mansion. I don't know what their names are and how should I call them." Zhou An said respectfully with his hands on his hands.
"I am One-horned Feng Qingsha, and this is my sister, the red-faced demon Hesha. Please take care of me from now on," Qingsha said.
She had long known from Guo'er that the real owner of the Zhou Mansion was Zhou An, and Zhou An was also very powerful and could restrain Guo'er, otherwise she would not let a rich man look after his house.
As for the nursing home, no matter how much money they are given, they will not come, but if they serve those warriors who are stronger than them, that is another matter.
"The Zhou Mansion will be your home from now on. If you need anything, just ask." Zhou An said.
"Thank you, Second Young Master, for being so courteous to us two. I have a request here." He Sha took a step forward and said.
"What's your request? Please tell me." Zhou An said with a faint smile.
"It is said that the Second Young Master has unparalleled martial arts skills and is a famous master in the ancient county, so I want to compete with the Second Young Master." He Sha said, knocking the bamboo pole on the ground with his hand.
"Let me take action on behalf of my young master. I just want to do some exercise." Guo'er spoke.
"We have fought before and know each other well. There is no need to fight again. I just want to fight against the second young master." He Sha said.
"I'll fight you!" Zhou An has now figured out He Sha's purpose. She wants to test whether her strength is what she heard and to feel her own strength.
"Second Young Master is still happy." He Sha took the bamboo pole and walked to the center of the training ground, waiting to compete with Zhou An.
Zhou An smiled, walked to the center of the martial arts training ground, pulled out the Cold Dragon Sword, and stood there majestically with the tip of the sword facing down.
"I'm about to take action. Second Young Master, please be careful." He Sha said.
For Zhou An, she could tell at a glance that Zhou An was only fourteen or fifteen years old. She had reached the level of Tongmai at such a young age. She didn't believe it, but there were rumors that Zhou An was very powerful, and it was very popular.
Guang, under the conflict between two and two, she could only compete with Zhou An to test Zhou An's true strength.
"Please take action." Zhou An said.
The bamboo pole in He Sha's hand instantly grew longer and hit Zhou An's head hard.
Zhou An took a step forward, swung his sword, and the sword light flashed across. Zhou An's Cold Dragon Sword was placed on He Sha's shoulder. As long as he slashed it with the sword, He Sha would die.
At this time, He Sha collapsed. Zhou An in front of her was really too strong. He could kill her with just one move. She was at the level of connecting meridians with six meridians. She didn't dare to think how powerful Zhou An in front of her was.
Just imagine, there are eight meridians, or nine meridians.
Guo'er and Qingsha who were nearby were also stunned. They only saw a sword light passing by, and Hesha was defeated.
"The second young master is very powerful, but he is not as good as he is in old age. From now on, my sisters and I will follow the second young master." He Sha said, bowing to Tong'an.
Qing Sha also bowed to Zhou An.
Zhou An quickly supported the two of them, stopped them from bowing, and said: "You're welcome, the Zhou Mansion will still need your protection in the future."
Seeing that the Qinghe Shuangsha was completely subdued, Zhou An was very happy. He had tested the strength of the Hesha and it was very strong. He believed that the Qingsha who was with her was equally strong. Now the Zhou Mansion has them both.
With the strength of three people, including Guo'er, it should be no problem to protect the Zhou Mansion, and Zhou An can go to Baiquan County with peace of mind.
Zhou An told the three people about his going to Baiquan County to take the imperial examination. The three people were surprised when they heard it. They did not expect Zhou An to be so powerful in martial arts and so accomplished in literature, but the three people soon understood.
Zhou An meant that they were worried about the safety of the mansion, so the three of them immediately said that they were in charge of the mansion, and even if a strong enemy came, they would protect it with all their strength.
After hearing what the three of them said, Zhou An took out a box from the storage compartment and said, "This is your reward for the next year. I'll thank you for your hard work." While Zhou An was talking, he opened the box, revealing that it was full of money.
Full of jewelry.
Qinghe Shuangsha and Guoer's eyes shone when they saw it. This box of jewelry was worth at least more than one million taels of silver. Zhou An's handiwork was really big this time.
Zhou An left the martial arts training ground and went to find Zhou Dacai and Qingrou. Zhou Dacai hadn't come back yet and was still dealing with the shops. Qingrou met Zhou An. Zhang Meimei and Qingwu were beside Qingrou. Zhou Aiai was also there. Zhou An told them
Qingrou agreed with the matter of going to Baiquan County to take the imperial examination. In her eyes, taking the imperial examination was much more promising than practicing martial arts, especially becoming a great official, which was very famous.
But Zhang Meimei and Qingwu don't think so. Baiquan County is a big county. Let's not talk about blood coagulation warriors, but there are many Tongmai warriors, not to mention those warriors who are at the top level of Tongmai level. Although Zhou An is very strong
, but they were still worried about Zhou An.
Seeing the completely different words from both sides, Zhou An calmed down Zhang Meimei and Qingwu's worries with her own words, and reassured Qingrou that she would be able to pass the examination.
After talking for a long time, Zhou Dacai and Wang Jiaoxi came back. Zhou An also told them about the imperial examination. They were now full of confidence in Zhou An, so they supported Zhou An to go.
Since everyone supports him, let's set off tomorrow. After all, there is not much time left.
Then Zhou An went to the blacksmith shop and found the new steward. Zhou An took out ten boxes of silver and asked the new steward to grind the silver into powder. Zhou An only gave them an hour. Of course, it took a lot of effort.
The remuneration was five times the original price, so the new manager readily agreed.
After he agreed, Zhou An proposed to get the gold-solidifying powder. The new steward seemed to have known about it for a long time, and immediately gave all the remaining gold-solidifying powder to Zhou An. When Zhou An put away the gold-solidifying powder, the silver ingots also
All was ground into silver powder and handed over to Zhou An, who then paid five times the reward and left.
After resting for a night, Zhou An prepared his horses the next day and set out on the road.
This time it was not just Zhou An who went there, but also Li Yuxuan and others. I don’t know where Li Yuxuan got the news. Zhou An went to Baiquan County and took seven scholars who were going to take the examination to find Zhou An. They wanted to talk to Zhou An.
An went to Baiquan County together.
Zhou An originally wanted to refuse, but when he thought of the advantages of going together, letting them handle everything, he would have more leisure and less trouble, so Zhou An set off on the road with them.
After chatting with Li Yuxuan, Zhou An learned that these seven talents were selected by Jian'an Academy. Li Yuxuan led the team to other counties to participate in this year's examination. Later, he learned that Zhou An was going, so Li Yuxuan found Zhou An and went together. .
In fact, Li Yuxuan originally considered going to an ordinary small county to take part in the examination, which would have a higher chance of passing the exam. Later, when she heard that Zhou An was going to Baiquan County, she decided to take seven scholars to Baiquan County to participate. She didn't know why she was so impulsive, maybe it was because of the trace of grief in her heart.
When the seven scholars saw Li Yuxuan and Zhou An chatting and laughing, they all looked at Zhou An sideways.
"Brother Liu, you have no chance. Look at the way Li Yuxuan looks at Zhou An, and you can see that she can't pull it out." Liu Wanyuan said teasingly to Liu Sanbian.
"Brother Qi is right. Ever since Zhou An arrived, the two of them have been chatting really passionately. If they weren't riding on two horses, they would probably be squeezed together." Bei Gan also said.
"I have heard of Zhou An's talent. He wrote two outstanding poems, and he was a genius since he was a child. He was only ten years old when he became a scholar. This is something that neither you nor I can compare with." Xu Shilin admired. said.
"Humph, what's so great about writing poetry? At most, he can pass one of the exams, but the other two are not easy to pass. I don't believe he can pass." Liu Sanbian said with a cold snort.
"But if he is good at poetry, he will easily pass the poetry section during the examination. This will give him many more opportunities than us." Xu Shilin said.
"So what? I have been studying for twenty-three years. I have become familiar with the interpretations of the Four Books and Five Classics. Poems are easy for me to compose. I will definitely win this exam. Let Li Yuxuan see how I compare with Zhou An." , which one is better?" Liu Sanbian looked at Zhou An and Li Yuxuan talking passionately, and he was going crazy with jealousy.
