Just when the two women were about to go crazy, Xu Fan's voice sounded outside the small courtyard.
"Little brother, are you okay? Our parents are waiting for us in the main hall."
"Here we come!" Xu Que responded loudly, then took Murong Yao and said goodbye to the two girls.
main hall
At this moment, Xu Maocai and his wife, aunt, and brothers Xu Long and Xu Hu were all waiting for Xu Fan and Xu Que.
"Fan'er, when you get to Nanfeng City, you must take good care of Que'er." Xu's mother warned.
"Please rest assured, mother, I will definitely take good care of my little brother." Xu Fan bowed his hand.
"You brat, you'd better cheer me up. Don't cause trouble when we get to Nanfeng City. If you have nothing to do, learn from your big brother." Xu Maocai told Xu Que.
Xu Que rolled his eyes and screamed inwardly, "F*ck", but he still replied sincerely: "Please don't worry, father. The child is no longer the naughty child he used to be. I promise not to cause trouble."
"Yes." Xu Maocai nodded with satisfaction: "Although this is your first time to take part in the examination, I hope you will be on the list!"
Xu Que wanted to tell his father that it was not difficult for him to be on the list at all, but he did not dare to say this. After all, he would easily get beaten if he said this...
Zhou took Xu Long and Xu Hu to say a few more words to them, and also gave them his blessing.
After all, if the Xu family wants to become famous, they really need these two scholars!
After saying goodbye to their families, Xu Fan and Xu Que walked out of the house. At this moment, Murong Yao was waiting for them outside the house.
"Do you want to walk on the wind?" Murong Yao asked.
"Do you have a better way?" Xu Que asked in confusion.
"Of course." Murong Yao said, with a slight flip of her right hand, a white cloud appeared in front of Xu Que and Xu Fan: "This is my magic weapon, come up."
"Magical weapon?"
Xu Fan was very shocked and looked at Murong Yao with strange eyes.
"Do you know?" Xu Que asked his eldest brother in a low voice.
"On top of the spiritual treasure is the magic weapon!" Xu Fan replied softly.
Damn it...
Xu Que was shocked inside. He also looked at Murong Yao with strange eyes. Xu Fan admired Xu Que for having such a beauty, but Xu Que was really thinking about how much this thing could be sold for...
"Okay, come on up, we can arrive at Nanfeng City in two-quarters of an hour." Murong Yao said nonchalantly.
When the two brothers set foot on Baiyun, the first feeling was comfort, and then they felt speed. This speed was completely faster than the flying boat...
Nan Feng City
When Xu Que and the others arrived, there were several Beimang soldiers in black armor standing at the city gate.
They were city-defending captains, but the smiles on their faces were sarcastic.
Entering Nanfeng City, Xu Que, like other scholars, was shocked by the scene here!
After the war, Nanfeng City became dilapidated. The once bustling streets are now only ruins, and the faint smell of blood can still be smelled in the air. The houses on both sides of the street were destroyed by the war, leaving only charred frames and broken tiles. Occasionally, there are a few relatively complete walls covered with black blood and knife marks, as if to tell the cruelty of war.
The streets were littered with rags and broken furniture scattered everywhere, as if time had frozen at this moment. The neighing of war horses, the laughter of Beimang soldiers' wanton slaughter, and the wailing of the people in Dayan still seem to be echoing in their ears. Occasionally, a few crows hovered in the sky, making shrill cries, adding a bit of sadness to this huge, silent city.
Xu Que passed by a Sanjin compound, and he could see an ancient well inside. Four or five corpses were placed beside the ancient well. It was not known whether the Beimang army had no time to clean it up or something, so they just allowed the corpses to pile up and rot.
"Damn Beimang!" Xu Fan shouted angrily in a low voice.
"Beimang specially prepared this for you Dayan students, in order to scare you." Murong Yao said calmly.
"Is killing someone heart-breaking?" Xu Que said with a cold expression on his face: "You can actually think of such a method! It's interesting!"
Xu Que and the others continued to move forward. The buildings in the city were even more miserable. The tall houses that were once people's safe havens were now in ruins. The window frames were broken, the roof collapsed, and the walls were covered with black blood and scorch marks. Occasionally, you can see a wall that has not completely collapsed, with faintly identifiable family letters or business signs on it.
This was the first time for the students of Nanfengzhou to see this scene. Although they were protected by culture, they were already frightened by this scene in their hearts.
A few dead trees stretched tenaciously toward the sky, their branches twisted and their leaves yellow. Under the tree, a group of crows were pecking at something, and whining sounds were heard from time to time.
When everyone saw this scene, they all vomited because the things hanging on the tree were all human corpses...
The three of them, Xu Que and others, endured the stench with determination and hurriedly left.
Xu Que was very lucky that he had seen blood, otherwise he would definitely be like those students...
Not to mention Xu Fan, he not only killed people, he was even hunted down.
As for Murong Yao, she had more knowledge. She just glanced at these.
Just as the three of them were about to walk to Dongcheng, several "haha" laughter suddenly sounded on the left side.
"This group of great scholars are really disgraceful. They can be frightened by such a scene."
"Yeah, fortunately, my father reacted quickly and took his family to join Beimang."
"Brother Zhang, you are wrong. Although we are Beimang students now, we still have to sympathize with these dogs!"
Then the "haha" laughter rang again...
"Beast!" Xu Fan clenched his fists and shouted angrily.
"Since you know they are beasts, there is no need to pay attention to them." Xu Que patted Xu Fan on the shoulder and said.
"Who are you calling a beast?" A Beimang student pointed at Xu Que and asked loudly.
"Who are you asking about?" Xu Que turned around and asked.
"The beast asked you..."
For a moment, the Beimang student's words were stuck in his throat.
"Ha ha!"
Xu Que and the other three laughed, because the other party actually admitted that he was a beast, which was interesting now.
"You kid, you are so wicked!" Murong Yao said in a low voice.
"It's just so-so. This kind of ignorant student will never achieve anything in his life!" Xu Que responded with a smile.
Hearing Xu Que's words, the Beimang students were furious: "How dare you tell me your name!"
Xu Que showed a disdainful expression and took a step forward: "I am Xu Que, a scholar from Dayan. I wonder what you may ask!"
This sentence was so powerful that it stunned those Bei Mang students, because Xu Que actually used He Wen's language to ask the question. This was a direct rip-off...
"Xu Que? Is he Xu Que, the scholar of colorful poems?" A native of Nanfeng Prefecture exclaimed.
They had heard of Xu Que, and they admired this guy deeply!
Two Beimang students whispered to the people next to them. After learning Xu Que's identity, they turned around and left. After all, Xu Que's name was among the literati in Nanfengzhou. He was a weirdo. Although he didn't know How about the article, but the poem was sincere and powerful... Then there was the question Xu Que said, and they didn't know how to answer it at all.
Seeing these Beimang students fleeing in despair, the Dayan students cheered.
"You shouldn't be so high-profile and cause trouble." Murong Yao advised.
"Yes, little brother, after all, this is no longer Nanfeng City in Dayan." Xu Fan agreed.
"It's okay. Anyway, I don't have a home at the moment." Xu Que replied nonchalantly.
As Xu Que and the others moved forward, students like Dayan seemed to have found a backbone and quickly followed them.
When Xu Que and the others were walking on the streets of Dongcheng, it was much better than Beicheng. There were not many traces of the war, and there were no bloody scenes.
On the rooftop of July Building, several Beimang students looked at the Dayan students below.
"Is this person Xu Que?" asked a scribe in blue.
"Exactly, this man is a master of poetry and poetry, and he is really the enemy of our Beimang literati." Another scribe in white replied.
"This is a general test. It's useless just to be able to write poems. Only after the strategy and annotations come out will we know whether he is a strong opponent!" The scholar in Tsing Yi opened the folding fan and smiled.
"What Mr. Yu said is that although we will take the exam with Dayan, we Beimang students will definitely stabilize them!"
