Fighter of the Destiny

Chapter 217 Looking at the monument at night (Part 1)

The night is already dark.

Different from yesterday, there were not so many people still intoxicated in front of the monument and unwilling to leave. Those who remained in front of the Heavenly Book Monument had relatively good spiritual consciousness, which was how they could sustain themselves until now. Chen Changsheng looked around and saw two candidates from Star Reaching Academy, the senior sister from Saint Girl's Peak and the little girl named Ye Xiaolian, as well as several people he had met in the imperial examination but could not remember the origin of their names. Among the candidates, the most conspicuous ones are the three scholars from Huaiyuan who are closest to the stone monument. In the night, their plain gowns are very conspicuous.

At a casual glance, you can see the problem on the field - the closer to the Beilu, the stronger the realm. I don't know if this is an implicit rule or if there has been a dispute.

Three scholars from Huaiyuan were closest to Beilu.

Zhong Hui stood in front of the hut, observing the monument in silence, while his two classmates stared at Chen Changsheng warily. Chen Changsheng was not surprised by this. In the imperial examination, Zhong Hui was defeated by Luo Luo. Huo Guang was seriously injured by him and could no longer hold on. Huaiyuan's hostility towards the National Education Academy was natural.

Gou Hanshi and he had some vague feelings after reading Xun Mei's notes, so they came to view the monument by the starlight, and naturally walked towards the monument house. Unexpectedly, the two men's steps once again caused a commotion around them, and more than ten pairs of eyes followed them. They move with different steps and have different emotions - if they want to reach the Heavenly Book Monument, they must occupy the positions of the three people in Huaiyuan.

The two Huaiyuan scholars did not give way. They looked at Gou Hanshi and Chen Changsheng with cold expressions and said, "First come, first served."

This sounds reasonable, but a sneer rang out from the crowd outside Beilu: "Earlier you said that your senior brother was the first in the imperial examination, so you asked us to give way. Why didn't you say first come, first served? Now in the imperial examination The first and second place are here, can you not let them go?"

The two Huaiyuan scholars heard this and were furious.

Only then did Gou Hanshi and Chen Changsheng know what had happened before, and they were very dissatisfied with the behavior of the scholars from Huaiyuan. They continued to walk forward, passing the two scholars from Huaiyuan without even looking at each other. Arriving at the front of Beilu, he stood behind Zhong Hui.

The two Huaiyuan scholars were even more angry and wanted to say something. Thinking about what the voice in the crowd said before, they couldn't explain at all, and they didn't dare to take action.

Zhong Hui withdrew his eyes from the monument, turned around and bowed seriously to Gou Hanshi. When he looked at Chen Changsheng who was standing next to Gou Hanshi, there was no respect in his eyes.

Young talents with such a long reputation like him don't have a good impression of Chen Changsheng. Even if Chen Changsheng has passed the imperial examination and has surpassed them in realm, they still think that Chen Changsheng is just lucky or has been influenced by the state religion. The care of those big shots.

"I haven't seen you in the past two days. Are you so confident in solving the monument? Or do you think your luck has run out and you just want to break it?"

Zhong Hui looked at him with an indifferent expression and said: "In the past years, the first place in the imperial examination could solve the first Heavenly Book Monument in five days at the latest. You are the first place in our session. If time If you use it for too long, it will only embarrass us. I hope you won't disappoint me."

Chen Changsheng was looking at the stone tablet under the starlight, his mind focused on the changes in the complicated lines. He was very puzzled when he heard these words, and asked casually: "We are not familiar with each other, even if I can't decipher this heavenly book What does the monument have to do with you, why are you disappointed again?"

Zhong Hui was stunned when he heard the words, took a deep breath, and said angrily, "What a sharp-tongued person."

Chen Changsheng did not answer, walked directly to him and said, "Please give way."

The place where Zhong Hui was standing now had the best view in front of the monument, it was the closest to the monument, and it would not block the starlight. After hearing these words, he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart and clenched his fists.

In the eyes of everyone, Chen Changsheng's first sentence was a clear disregard, and the second sentence was a seemingly polite toughness. Even the person who had previously mocked the scholar from Huaiyuan thought that he was humiliating the other person. Only Gou Hanshi looked at Chen Changsheng's expression and guessed that he was not, but just wanted to ask Zhong to let go.

He shook his head and followed Chen Changsheng towards Zhong Hui.

The gown was trembling slightly in the night wind. Zhong Hui was extremely angry, and so were the other two Huaiyuan classmates. The three of them might attack Chen Changsheng at any time, but Gou Hanshi stood between them and Chen Changsheng, which made them I had to calm down and remembered the difference between the Zuozhao Realm and the Tongyou Realm... They were no match for Gou Hanshi. In other words, they couldn't beat Chen Changsheng.

If you cannot defeat it, your anger will have no power. The two Huaiyuan scholars were still aggrieved, but Zhong Hui forced himself to calm down and took a few steps back to make way for Gou Hanshi and Chen Changsheng. He looked at Chen Changsheng's back and stopped talking, with a slight sneer on his lips. . ——As he said before, Chen Changsheng rarely appeared in front of Beilu in the past two days. In his opinion, it must be a pretense. He did not believe that Chen Changsheng had good luck in the Imperial Examination in the Tomb of Heavenly Books. , can you still see the flowers in this monument?

Starlight fell on the Zhaoqing Monument, and those complicated lines seemed to be coated with a layer of silver, and it seemed as if mercury was slowly flowing inside. An indescribable vivid feeling appeared in front of Chen Changsheng's eyes. He did not mobilize his consciousness. He didn't let the true energy in his meridians move with those lines, nor did he try to understand the sword power from the direction of those lines. He just watched, felt, and experienced it quietly. He once again confirmed that the scenes he saw in the morning were real, and the scenes he imagined in the courtyard with his spiritual consciousness in the afternoon were also real, and his smile gradually emerged.

"Did you get anything?" Gou Hanshi looked at the change in his expression and asked in slight shock.

Chen Changsheng nodded and said, "I was a little hesitant because I thought it was too simple, but there were a few sentences in my notes that reminded me."

Gou Hanshi said: "Do you still insist on using the most primitive solution?"

Chen Changsheng said: "It may be stupider or slower, but it suits me best."

There was silence around Beilu, and everyone was listening attentively, including Zhong Hui. Chen Changsheng and Gou Hanshi are two people recognized by the world as thorough readers of Taoism. How could they miss their discussion on the interpretation of the Heavenly Book Stele, but what notes did Chen Changsheng mention?

"What is the most primitive solution? Turning lines into numbers?" The senior sister from Saintess' Peak, who was familiar with Gou Hanshi, took two steps forward and asked curiously.

Gou Hanshi glanced at Chen Changsheng.

"We think the most primitive solution is to not think about all the true energy and spiritual consciousness and moves. It's not about turning lines into numbers, but..." Chen Changsheng turned to look at the girl from Saintess Peak, and explained seriously, and was about to I spoke out my feelings and expressed my opinion, thinking that the true meaning of the Heavenly Book should be hidden in the changes in the inscriptions, but unexpectedly...

A cold shout came from the night.

"Absolutely ridiculous!"

A middle-aged man came to the venue at some point, with an unusually cold expression on his face.

When Zhong Hui and three other scholars from Huaiyuan saw this person, they looked happy and hurriedly stepped forward to salute. : I met my uncle. "

Chen Changsheng discovered that this middle-aged man was the tablet attendant who had severely reprimanded him in the early morning. Only then did he realize that this man was actually an elder of Huaiyuan.

The middle-aged man walked to Beilu, looked at Gou Hanshi and Chen Changsheng, and shouted sternly: "It is said that you two juniors have read Taoism thoroughly, but I didn't expect that you are two ignorant children who only talk nonsense!"

(I went out yesterday morning and arrived in Shanghai late at night. I had a busy day today. I have to go to the airport early tomorrow morning and arrive in Daqing in the afternoon. The schedule is really tough. In addition to meeting some readers for work, I didn’t even have a chance to make friends. I see, although I have written less, I have not stopped updating. Well, I can’t complain, because it is all my own business, which affects my writing speed. That is something I need to reflect on and summarize. The good news is that by the end of the year, it seems to be really I don’t have to go out anymore, hahahaha... Uh, but if Chuangshi is going to hold an annual meeting, then I have no choice. In addition, regarding the PC game of Zetianji, the closed beta without deletion should start on the 31st , if there is any new situation, I will report to you in time. See you tomorrow.)
