Yangzhou.
The capital of Yangzhou is called Luochuan. It is said that a long time ago this place was called Luochuan. Because a large river was thrown here by an immortal, it was named Luochuan.
Later, the name was passed down and became Luochuan.
However, the city of Luochuan is really built on a river, and this river is called Luohe.
The Luo River runs straight through the center of the huge city of Luochuan. On both sides of the river, there are countless pavilions, and people flow between the pavilions like a tide.
The green bricks and black tiles are dotted with snow stains. Under the blue oil-paper umbrella, the beauty stops on the stone bridge and smiles, making her charming. Pedestrians just glance at her one more time and then leave, all because There are too many beauties in Luochuan City.
The land and water support the people, and the city in the south of the Yangtze River is as beautiful as water. It has created the charming Luochuan women who are famous all over the world, and has also created countless literati with poetry and calligraphy.
Mr. Li Er even said that Luochuan City contained culture and spirit, and built the Tianxia Academy here.
On the river, ships of various sizes come and go. It is like thousands of sails have passed and thousands of shadows will come.
Someone once joked that the trade volume of Luochuan alone was worth half of the tax revenue of the entire Yangzhou.
However, the prosperity of Luochuan City can indeed be seen at a glance.
The city relies on the Luo River to connect water systems extending in all directions and conduct business all over the world.
However, it can be said that half of the bustle of Luochuan City comes from the business on Luohe River, and the other half comes from this Tianxia Academy.
If the entire Luochuan City is like a giant web falling on the Luo River, then Tianxia Academy is like a big spider falling on the giant web.
This spider lay firmly in the center of the giant web, unmoving despite being blown by the wind and waves.
Centered on the tallest pavilion in the center of Luochuan City, the entire area of a hundred miles is within the scope of Tianxia Academy.
In the academy, the sound of books and bells ringing every day, and the noise of the outside world seems to be blocked out by the high red wall.
Separated by a wall, there are two worlds.
Just inside Tianxia Academy, there is a small green bamboo forest.
Although the snow had stopped at this time, it was still icy and snowy outside, and the cold wind was as sharp as a knife.
In this bamboo forest, a beautiful woman in a thin skirt was sitting and playing the guqin.
However, the beauty she exudes is different from the soft beauty of the Luochuan woman. She has a straight nose bridge and a pointed chin. If she hadn't closed her eyes, you can imagine how aggressive her gaze would be.
She is not a woman from Luochuan City, she is from Chang'an.
The song she was playing at this time was also a war song called "The Song of King Qin Breaking the Formation".
The rapid sound of the piano is just like the biting cold wind at this time, biting but full of despair.
It is said that the King of Qin who composed the music was in a desperate situation with nowhere to escape. In extreme despair, he personally went into battle to beat drums to cheer up the soldiers, and commanded the already defeated soldiers to launch a final fearless charge.
When the last syllable of this song fell, there was a burst of applause, and someone clapped their hands and laughed and said, "Okay! Good playing! How long has it passed before Miss Jiang Zhiyuan has practiced the piano to such a level? It is truly a gift from heaven!”
But after hearing this, Jiang Zhiyuan frowned, with disgust on his face.
The color of evil.
Two men appeared outside the bamboo forest. What was strange was that their faces were very similar, except that one was slightly arrogant and the other was slightly colder.
And it was the arrogant man who was holding his hands and laughing just now.
"Xu Wen, what are you doing here?" Jiang Zhiyuan asked impatiently.
It turns out that these two people are the twin sons of Xuzhou Zhoumu. They have been gifted since they were young. They were accepted by Tianxia Academy early and carefully cultivated. Jiang Zhiyuan was admitted to Tianxia Academy in the past and wanted to meditate here. , in order to gain greater strength.
However, after Xu Wen met Jiang Zhiyuan, he took the initiative to express his intention to become a Taoist companion with her.
Jiang Zhiyuan, who was devoted to the Tao, decisively rejected Xu Wen's invitation. As a result, Xu Wen refused to give up and kept stalking her. Every time he learned where she was, he would come to disturb her, which made Jiang Zhiyuan very upset. It's annoying, I can only
Avoid him again and again.
No, not long after she came here, Xu Wen found her again.
"Miss Jiang, why are you so angry? Not only does this have a great impact on the progress of your cultivation, but it is also extremely easy to go crazy! You must be careful and take care of your body!" Xu Wen said seriously said.
Jiang Zhiyuan said coldly, "Why don't you worry about me? If you have time to talk to me, you might as well use it to take care of your own legs!"
Xu Wen laughed and said, "I'm really flattered that Miss Jiang cares so much about my body! I've been very free these two days, so why not come to my cave and have a taste with me? I just had a taste of it two days ago. I bought a can of meditation tea from Changbai Mountain, I think it will be of great help to your cultivation!"
Jiang Zhiyuan snorted coldly, "No need to, as long as you stop pestering me for a few days, my cultivation level will also increase by leaps and bounds!"
"How can that be done! Miss Jiang and I miss each other so much after not seeing each other for a moment, and I feel uncomfortable all over! I am so infatuated with Miss Jiang, how can you bear to watch me feel uncomfortable!"
"Haha, don't be sentimental. You are a famous person after all. There is no need to do such a lowly thing. It is impossible for me and you!" Jiang Zhiyuan turned around decisively and left without looking back.
Xu Wen shouted from behind, "Since you are the woman that I, Xu Wen, like, no matter what method I use, I will chase you and marry you home!"
However, Jiang Zhiyuan didn't say a word and quickly disappeared.
Among the pavilions of Tianxia Academy.
"Oh, if it weren't for that person's favor, this bastard makes so much noise in the academy's cultivation area every day, I would have taken him down long ago!" An elder frowned and said, revealing his feelings for Xu in his words. Wen was strongly dissatisfied.
"Noisy, so what if it's noisy? Can you still chop off these brothers? If you dare to do this, do you believe that tomorrow Xuzhou Zhou Mu will have to chop off all the heads of us old guys, even Zhao Jin Wen doesn't dare to stop him!" An elder sighed.
"Let's just make a fuss, and we'll pretend we didn't see it. Anyway, we're old enough to wear this deaf and blind hat."
"But isn't this a bit unfair to this girl? After all, she is also Liu Jingxing's granddaughter, and she has come to us and told us so many times!"
"Hey, haven't you understood? Since Liu Jingxing and Xu Hanyu are pretending to be deaf and dumb, why do we have to wade into this muddy water?"
"Yes, if I were to talk about this matter, I would already have the tacit consent of both families.
Yanzhou, Qingzhou, and Xuzhou were already tied to the same boat, so it makes sense for them to get closer now. But I don’t know if this girl can’t see the situation clearly or if she doesn’t want to accept her fate! "
"With such a fate, how can people fight against it? Alas, there is nothing we can do. This is a matter between their state and herdsmen."
"Let's give this girl more pills and exercises from now on. By the way, how are you preparing for the academy competition the day after tomorrow?" Li Er sighed and asked.
"Go back to the dean, everything is ready!" A young woman next to Li Er said softly. Her voice was as sweet and sweet as a lark. It has the effect of washing away all the negative emotions in people's hearts, as if no matter how angry they are, People become calm after hearing her voice.
"By the way, none of you have accepted a disciple. This time, why don't you each accept a disciple? In order to avoid being discussed by the warriors in the world, our Academy has always regarded itself as a teacher, but the Three Immortals have never accepted a disciple. Disciple, I cherish my broom." Li Er said slowly.
The Three Immortals refer to the three powerful seventh-level warriors in Tianxia Academy. They all follow the path of spiritual cultivation. Each of them has reached the highest state among the warriors of Kyushu on a martial path.
They are Li Bai, the immortal poet, Zhuang Zhou, the immortal painter, and Cai Wenji, the immortal harpist.
Li Bai, the immortal poet, was said to be born with precocious wisdom. He could speak at the age of one, recite a thousand ancient poems at the age of three, and compose his own poems at the age of seven. By the time he was eighteen, he had become a great scholar and began to travel in the mountains. water.
Although he did not accept disciples and did not practice martial arts, his travels attracted countless people to follow him, including common people, wealthy businessmen and beggars, and even low- to middle-grade warriors.
These people all came here because of his reputation and praised his poems profusely.
The poems he recited casually were all recorded one by one and spread throughout Kyushu.
From the age of eighteen to over seventy, he traveled all over the country.
No matter whether it was rough mountains and rivers or raging wars along the way, he was not afraid.
The number of people following him and protecting him sometimes reached thousands at most, and only at least sometimes.
When he couldn't walk anymore, he stopped, and the person behind him came over holding a thick book of poems with tens of thousands of pages.
He composed his last poem. On that day, once the golden light was bright, it illuminated Kyushu at midnight.
One poem shocked all the states and reached the seventh level in one step!
As for the piano fairy Cai Wenji, she is the only woman among the three immortals.
It is said that she played a unique piece of music that shocked the immortals in the sky, and was blessed to reach the seventh level.
Hua Xian Zhuang Zhou is the most mysterious among the three immortals, and his breakthrough experience is even more bizarre.
Some people say that he reached the seventh level in one sleep.
Some people also say that he glimpsed the appearance of an immortal in his dream and drew a picture of an immortal. When he woke up and observed it, he realized the great way and immediately became a seventh-level person.
However, these are all rumors about the Three Immortals. I am afraid they are the only ones who truly know the truth.
…………
Following Li Er's words, the three immortals were silent for a moment, and then they all responded.
The other old men around him were silent.
The three immortals are going to accept disciples in this academy competition. This is great news. I am afraid it will cause a big storm in the academy this time.
