I slay demons and demons with poetry

Chapter 56
Song Mu stood among the crowd, but suddenly heard someone calling his name.

Looking up, the students next to him were already looking at Song Mu, and the students from Taihe County were also looking at the students from Shiyang County, but their eyes were full of honesty. Kong Zong looked around, completely ignoring Song Mu who was standing behind the team.

And Master Xun, who heard Fan Tixue's question, cupped his hands in a hurry and replied respectfully.

"Yes, my lord. Song Mu is my 26-year-old boy from Chongwen, Shiyang County. He also came to take the college examination this year, and he is in the team."

After saying that, Master Xun turned his head and saw that Song Mu, who was standing at the end of the line, was also looking at him.

"Song Mu, don't come out to meet Mr. Tixue yet."

Master Xun said so, and all the students in Taihe County looked over at this moment, sweeping back and forth among the team in Shiyang County.

There was a bit of curiosity on their faces, and they also wanted to see who Song Mu was who could write brilliant and prospering poems, which even the academicians praised unceasingly.

Song Mu, who heard the call, also took a deep breath at the moment, and then stepped out of the team.

Then everyone saw a tall young man standing out from the end of the line. This is a handsome man, not to mention how handsome he is, but he is tall, with slender hands and feet, and wearing a decent gown, he looks very handsome Bookish.

Fan Zhengxiong also noticed this tall young man, and there was a smile on his face at the moment, looking carefully at Song Mu.

"Song Mu, who was born late, met Mr. Tixue."

Song Mu shook his sleeves and bowed, bowed his head and said in a deep voice.

Fan Zhengxiong also nodded, and said to Song Mu: "Come here, let everyone take a look, and see how talented the talented people in Jizhou Prefecture who write brilliant poems are."

Hearing this, Song Mu also immediately stepped forward, came to the side where Master Xun was standing, and stood slightly staggered by half a step.

And everyone in the field began to look at Song Mulai carefully, and some even looked at each other, conveying some strangeness in their eyes with their eyes.

They noticed this tall man just now. Apart from being more conspicuous in the crowd, the other man was not very good.

They thought that the elegant Kong Zong would be the famous Song Mu, but they didn't expect to be such a tall man.

However, there are also people who look calm, and seem to have understood this a few times.

Fan Zhengxiong was also looking at Song Mu at the same moment, with a smile on his face, and he kept nodding.

"Okay, that's right. It really is a good-looking talent. The Song family's culture has been passed down from generation to generation. It is really a good thing to be able to wipe away the dust and regain the light."

After Fan Zhengxiong said so, he stood up and walked forward. He looked at Song Mu and said slowly again.

"The old man really appreciates your poem of Nine Fights of Talent, which is well-known in the world now. You have been on the list of "Tianxia Wenkan" for two consecutive months. It's not bad!"

Fan Zhengxiong said so, but Song Mu was a little stunned. The song "Learning Nostalgia in Luanye County, Shiyang County" that he wrote later had already been published in "Tianxia Wenkan"?

But immediately Song Mu also nodded in his heart, maybe yes, now it is mid-August, the latest "Tianxia Wenkan" should have come down, and Fan Zhengxiong should be able to get this book earlier.

Thinking of this, Song Mu's expression was also a little unconsciously joyful, and he bowed his hands again and again.

"Master Tixue praised it. Wansheng was also filled with righteous indignation at the time, and his chest was full of enthusiasm, thinking about what he would do for the people of Shiyang County."

"Oh? Sure enough, it is straight from the heart. It is a good poem. After reading it, the old man also felt a feeling of blood agitation."

"Not bad, very good!" Fan Tixue said, his face full of emotion.

Song Mu also said with a dignified expression at the moment.

"Lansheng was apprehensive, but my uncle at home always taught me that as a child of culture, we should have the world in mind. As the saying goes, everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. Wansheng not only wants to be a scholar who recites classics and inherits them through the ages, but also wants to be a scribe who holds a pen with both hands! "

"Okay, haha, okay, everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world, such a generous poem, wonderful!"

Fan Zhengxiong laughed heartily after hearing Song Mu's words and seeing Song Mu's sincere face.

He also knew what was going on in Song Mu's family before. The Song family was crumbling with thirteen Scholars. Fan Zhengxiong once felt very sorry, but now, he sees hope in Song Mu!
This is not only the hope of the orthodoxy of the Wenmen Song family, but also the hope of the literati in Jizhou Prefecture!

"It's great that you have such ambitions, but don't worry about being useless. After a few days of the college examination, as long as you become a scholar in one fell swoop, and your literary strength is concentrated, there is a lot you can do in the world!"

Fan Zhengxiong's eyes flashed with fire, and he said to Song Mu again.

"At that time, I also want to see how far you can go with the ambition of rising and falling, and everyone being responsible!"

Fan Zhengxiong patted Song Mu's shoulder and said so, and the eyes of the surrounding people suddenly envied.

Such an opportunity to visit, to be appreciated and encouraged by Fan Zhengxiong, is what so many people dream of, even those talented people are looking at Song Mu with envy in their eyes.

But envy soon turned to helplessness.

If he can achieve Song Mu's level and write such poems, he will naturally be appreciated by Fan Xuezheng.

This is the benefit of strength.

Everyone sighed in their hearts, Song Mu also bowed his hands again and again, and then Song Mu returned to the team, Fan Xuezheng called a few more talented students, most of them were children of cultural background or students with good studies.

Everyone accepted some encouragement, then respectfully saluted Fan Tixue, and then walked out of Fan's house.

After coming out, the two teams headed towards the street where the school was located, where there were lodging places arranged by the government, and there were also some posthouses that rent out elegant rooms for scholars.

Song Mu and Kong Zong were about to go to the carriage, but at this moment, a person came over and bowed to Song Mu.

"Brother Kong Zong, brother Song Mu, my lord, Cui Kexing from Taihe County, is also a student who came to participate in this hospital examination."

The person who spoke was a young man of medium height, who looked a few years older than Song Mu, with a little beard on his mouth, correct eyebrows and eyes, and he was talking to Song Mu with a smile at the moment.

Song Mu immediately turned around and smiled and cupped his hands, and Cui Kexing also said to Song Mu immediately.

"Brother Song now has a great reputation in Jizhou Prefecture. The ranking in the college examination this time must be as easy as picking something out of a bag."

Hearing what he said, Song Mu immediately cupped his hands, and said modestly: "Song doesn't dare to trust him, Brother Cui is really absurd."

Cui Kexing had an expression that should be taken for granted, and said again to Song Mu with a smile.

"Brother Song, don't be so modest. Literati's articles and poems are paramount. Your poems also express the thoughts of scholars like me. I heard you say that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. It also touched me a lot."

"That's why I took the liberty to come here to get acquainted with Brother Song."

"It's really flattering." Song Mu responded with a smile, and Cui Kexing bowed his hands to Kong Zong who was next to him.

"Brother Kong Zong has not seen you for a long time. The last time I met you was at the government examination."

"Brother Cui is out of touch. I still remember Brother Cui very much. Back then, Brother Cui's poems were all posted on the famous list. I have also read those poems and prose for a long time."

Kong Zong responded with a smile, and seemed to be familiar with Cui Kexing. Hearing what Kong Zong said, Cui Kexing also showed a little smile.

The three of them said a few words, and the team started to move. Cui Kexing immediately said to Song Mu and Kong Zong.

"You two, don't bother me if you are running around today. We can meet up to read poetry and articles in the next few days. I also want to be familiar with the articles and poetry of the two of you."

Song Mu and Kong Zong naturally cupped their hands and got into the carriage.

"This Cui Xingxing is not bad in nature, he has a deep knowledge of poetry and poetry, but he likes to compare. Brother Song, I think he regards you as an opponent."

On the carriage, Kong Zong said to Song Mu with a smile on his face.

Song Mu also had a smile on his face, calm: "That's fine, but I haven't talked to them much. Since they have some advantages, I naturally have to learn from them with an open mind."

Kong Zong also nodded, agreeing very much.

Not long after, the carriage had arrived at the street where the Fuxue was located, and the sky had already darkened. The coachman of the Song family turned around and asked.

"Master, shall we go to the mansion?"

"Go." Kong Zong nodded and said, looking at Song Mu again.

"Last year when I was born in middle school, my father bought a small house here and hired two servants to take care of it. It was considered as a residence for the courtyard exam."

"Brother Song, if you don't mind, you can live with me and study articles together."
