Time flies, and half a month passes in the twinkling of an eye.
On this day, Gao guiyong and Zhou Quan arrived as scheduled, received a warm reception from Feiyun village, and purchased more than 400 nearly Feiyun fire copper in the village at the price of 700 silver coins.
At the same time, Gao guiyong brought a letter to Lintian, which was written by Xue Liang and the content was very simple. He just told Lintian that it was only one month from the "government test" of donglincheng. If he was willing to participate in it, he had to start to donglincheng as soon as possible.
Lintian knew that, generally speaking, the government examination would be held in December of each year, the state examination would be arranged in March of the next year, and the provincial examination would be three months after the state examination, that is, June.
As for the national test, it will be held in September.
It is said that in September every year, in the Forbidden City, the imperial capital of the Obsidian Empire, obsidian flowers will bloom as scheduled, dotted everywhere in the city like a sea of flowers. It is a first-class wonder in the world, known as the "Obsidian Flower Festival".
The practitioners who can successfully pass the examination in the national test are often known as "the show of obsidian and the pride of the country", and then they are arranged to go to the most famous Imperial street in the Forbidden City, walk in the sea of obsidian flowers and receive cheers and praise from all.
This tradition is also called "the trip of heaven's pride".
Lintian took the letter in his hand and read it for a long time until dusk came and finally made a decision.
……
Three days later.
Before dawn, Lintian packed his bags, took the summer solstice hand, opened the door and walked out of the courtyard.
"Did you really decide not to tell anyone else?" The summer solstice is a rare question.
"No, it's not life and death. It's better not to disturb them." Lin Xun shook his head. In fact, he couldn't bear to see a group of villagers send each other off.
However, when they arrived at the entrance of the village, they were stunned.
At this time, before dawn, the mountains in the distance were shrouded in darkness, but there was a bright light near the entrance of the village, and the fierce fire lit up the area.
Xiao Tianren and other villagers all raised their torches, and both the elderly and children stood there quietly.
Every face is full of reluctant to give up, and even many people have tears in their eyes, trying not to cry.
No one spoke, the atmosphere was silent, only the wind was floating.
Lintian was completely stunned and his heart was in a rush. He couldn't calm down for a long time.
"Let's go!"
Xiao Tianren took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "don't say anything more. Everyone just wants to give you a ride."
Lintian nodded, turned over and stepped on the scale horse with the summer solstice, and the horse's hooves beat on the ground, making a loud sound in the silent atmosphere.
Many children couldn't help rushing forward, but were stopped by the adults around them. Some women couldn't help but bow their heads and cry and feel unspeakable sadness in their hearts.
Under the light, Lintian looked at each face silently, and suddenly remembered that he had lived in Feiyun village for half a year
Half a year!
Not only has Fei Yun Village changed a lot, but also he has changed a lot. Now he is leaving. When can he return to his hometown and see his old friends again?
"Lintian!"
Lintian was awakened from the confusion and looked around, but the village head Xiao Tianren said in a deep voice: "remember, Feiyun village will always be your home. If you are too tired outside, you must not hold on. We Feiyun village are always waiting for you to come back!"
"When you come back!"
The villagers couldn't restrain their emotions any longer and shouted out together. The voice full of expectation echoed endlessly in the night.
Lintian took a deep breath, laughed and waved, and immediately drove the horse away.
At that time, when the dawn broke, a touch of dawn tore through the darkness, scattered the first ray of light between heaven and earth, lit up the mountains and rivers, and bathed the boy riding forward with a touch of dazzling light.
The frozen picture at that moment is destined to be unforgettable to all the villagers of Feiyun village for a lifetime.
Until Lintian's figure disappeared in the boundless sky, a group of villagers did not disperse, and many past events were uncontrollably remembered in his mind.
When Lintian came to Feiyun village for the first time, who could imagine that this young man helped them resolve one crisis after another?
Who could have thought that Fei Yun village had undergone earth shaking changes in just six months because of his arrival?
The villagers were not stupid. Naturally, they knew that Lintian really took Feiyun village as his home, and they also regarded Lintian as their own people.
The only pity is that they all know that people like Lintian are not destined to stay dormant in Fei Yun village all their life. The outside world is his stage!
"Of course, from now on, it may be difficult for us to meet people who are as kind to us as they are."
"Yes."
"At the summer solstice, the outside world is very big and there are many unimaginable dangers. I will try my best not to let you be wronged."
"As long as you don't leave me, I won't be wronged."
"Ha ha, I can't leave you."
In the vast mountains, Lintian galloped with his horse. The cold wind in the morning made his beautiful and angular face particularly firm.
The summer solstice was sitting in Lintian's arms, with a shallow smile on her beautiful and quiet face. Her world was so small that she could only hold Lintian alone.
……
Three days later.
Lintian came to Qingyang tribe and met Xue Liang. He took a map to the east city given by Xue Liang and left Qingyang tribe that afternoon and went all the way north.
While Lintian was leaving, Yan Zhen, the shopkeeper of shidingzhai of Qingyang tribe, sent a letter to donglincheng thousands of miles away.
The letter was sent to Mu Wansu, the person in charge of Shi dingzhai in donglincheng. The content was very simple. It only said: "Lintian has gone to donglincheng and is expected to arrive in two days."
The letter was carried by a "green feather Falcon". After only three hours, it fell into the hands of Mu Wansu.
At that time, the late Su Su was bathing, and saw this letter, and he tore it off with his hand. He said, "come on, come on. Anyway, I has the final say of stone stall in East Lincheng. After that, you can't have a little relationship with my stone stall only if you are in Lincheng for a day."
As she spoke, she got up from the bath bucket, and her graceful and proud yingbai Jiao body was covered with water droplets, if it was suffused with the luster of tempting reverie.
In the evening, Su put on a loose bathrobe and stood in front of a huge copper mirror, wiping her wet hair with a clean towel. There was an unspeakable beauty in her lazy appearance.
Immediately, she seemed to think of something, provoked by a pair of Dai Mei, as fierce as a blade.
"No, Shi dingzhai can't even collect and sell goods with this little rabbit in the future. We must cut off any contact with him. Didn't the eldest childe say that this little rabbit will become a great weapon in the future? I'd like to see if he can get a foothold in the east city without the help of Shi dingzhai!"
At the thought of this, Su Hong's full lips and corners smiled, and a blurred color appeared in her beautiful eyes. She murmured, "Lintian, Lintian, don't blame your sister for being ruthless. You used to make your sister angry. You must remember that if you are concerned by a woman, the consequences will be terrible..."
……
At the same time, Wu's firm of Qingyang tribe.
"Shopkeeper, I've sent someone to Fei Yun Village to investigate. Deacon Wu Henshui and his subordinates, including Lian Rufeng and others, disappeared together. I'm afraid they've all suffered an accident as you expected."
"In addition, just this evening, the spy came back the news that Lintian had set out to the east to the city, and there was only a little girl with him."
Wu Deyong, one of his subordinates, listened to the newspaper quietly. His face changed for a long time. Finally, he clenched his teeth and said, "it's not good where to go. It's just going to go east to Lincheng. Isn't it a trap? That's the headquarters of my Wu family! Although Shi dingzhai also has an industry in donglincheng, as long as you seize the opportunity, you may be able to take advantage of it!"
For a whole month, whenever Wu Deyong thinks of Wu Henshui who disappeared and Wu Jie, the mad dog who was killed, he is like a needle in his heart and has trouble sleeping and eating.
Especially since they were stopped by Shi dingzhai that day, the reputation of their Wu firm in Qingyang tribe suddenly fell to the bottom and became a laughing stock.
This made Wu Deyong's resentment stronger and stronger. Now I heard that Lintian was going to go east to the city, which made Wu Deyong smell the smell of opportunity.
As he said, the east facing city is the base camp of their Wu clan, and its power is intertwined. Although Shi dingzhai has great power and belongs to first-class giants in the Empire, he can only be regarded as an alien in the east facing city after all.
Wu Deyong knew that there were thousands of ways to kill people. He didn't have to deal with Lintian with a sword and a gun. As long as he arranged some means and was more careful, he could eradicate Lintian silently!
At that time, even if Shi dingzhai knew about it, their Wu clan would never admit that they did it themselves, and the consequences would not be more serious.
Having figured this out, Wu Deyong could no longer restrain himself. That night, he hurried away from Qingyang tribe with several guards and galloped east to the city.
"Shopkeeper, it's bad. Wu Deyong has taken someone to the east to the city at night. I'm afraid he has heard the news of Lintian and wants to be bad for him!"
Shi dingzhai and Xue Liang hurriedly find Yan Zhen and are worried.
"No problem, I've spread the news to miss Wansu."
Yan Zhen said calmly, "how dare you offend Shi dingzhai because of Lintian when Miss Su is here in the evening and the Wu clan is rampant again?"
Xue Liang felt at ease when he heard the speech.
But neither Yan Zhen nor Xue Liang knew that Su had made a plan to make a clear distinction with Lintian.
Similarly, Lintian didn't expect it, because so many things had happened secretly when he went east to the city.
