Volume 2: A Dream of Hua Xu Chapter 13: First Test

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Yu Xuanji was about to put on the face of a strict teacher and lecture Xu Xian, but seeing his pitiful look, he felt a little soft-hearted.  No, of course it's not soft-hearted, it's about taking it step by step so that Xu Xian can't get bored with Taoism. As she thought this, she couldn't help but think of the time when she was learning to draw talismans.

    So he ordered, "Pick up the pen."

    Xu Xian immediately picked up the pen obediently, and then Yu Xuanji grabbed Xu Xian's hand and said, "I'll help you with the pen, you just spread the aura."

    The slender plain hands, covering Xu Xian's hands, are as delicate as fine porcelain.  Xu Xian was stunned for a moment, seeing Yu Xuanji's expressionless face, and seemed to be unconcerned, thinking that she was a Taoist who probably didn't pay attention to such things.  So I suppressed the lingering thoughts in my heart and concentrated on conveying spiritual energy.  This method lasted only a few seconds, and it was done in just one try. Although it was impossible for Xu Xian to be able to draw by himself immediately, he still vaguely touched on many skills.  This is the difference between having a teacher and not having a teacher. A little guidance on key points can save endless effort.

    It¡¯s just that if Xu Xianruo turned around, he should have seen the faint blush on Yu Xuanji¡¯s face. Taoist cultivators don¡¯t care much about human etiquette, so they would hold Xu Xian¡¯s hand.  But Yu Xuanji's master was also a woman. She didn't feel anything bad when her hand was being held, but it was the first time in her life that she had skin-to-skin contact with a man.  No matter how good she is, until she achieves the ruthless and sexless way, she is still a woman after all, and only through experience can she understand that it is not as simple as imagined.

    He refused to hold it once and let Xu Xian practice by himself.  Although Xu Xian had some slight regrets, his mind was attracted to the wonderful Taoism and he didn't care much.

    Finally, Xu Xian¡¯s strokes were drawn, and the runes on the yellow paper were completed.  This invisibility talisman has been drawn, and it is in a completely independent state.  Yu Xuanji nodded with satisfaction after seeing it, "Well, it's not bad. Although it won't last too long, it's definitely done."

    Xu Xian looked at the horizon. The red clouds were burning and the jackdaws were returning to their nests. It was already dusk.  "Senior sister, it's getting late." He said goodbye and left in a hurry.

    Yu Xuanji shook his head. Although he was not too hungry yet, it was time to prepare dinner. There was no need for Sun'er's, just prepare his own.  But when I think about the things I made, I usually don¡¯t feel like it. I just want to wrap my belly. Now I feel a little unhappy.  Although her practice method is not taboo, she is still content with the situation, and she doesn't care much about the desire of words, but now it is difficult to switch from extravagance to frugality!

    Entering the kitchen, there was a gurgling sound in the pot, and I opened the bamboo cage, which also contained a few side dishes.  Zhan'er, who had been running around all afternoon, came out and giggled: "Uncle Shi prepared this just now. I want to say thank you."

    Yu Xuanji then remembered that Xu Xian had just excused himself to get some paper before coming back for a long time. She thought he was being lazy on purpose, but she didn't expect him to be here.  The dishes are all her favorites. She must have paid attention to her taste at noon and made them lighter on purpose.

    Chewing slowly, the food is sweet, how many people in the world can surprise her?

    Back at the academy, Xu Xian lay lazily on the bed, feeling that his hands were a little sore.  He ate too much at noon and didn't feel hungry, but rather drowsy.

    Pan Yu pushed the door open and said with a smile: "Hanwen, did you go and get it today?" Xu Xian was not around today. She knew that he was looking for the fish mystery, and she was always unhappy. Sometimes she looked back and wanted to say  What, only to find that there was no one around.

    That smile made Xu Xian feel a little inexplicably uneasy.  But he thought he had done nothing wrong, so he told the truth frankly.

    Pan Yu was silent for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said: "I was just going to say that you missed the beautiful woman reciting poems today, but unexpectedly you spent the whole day with another beauty."

    Xu Xian explained: "That's my senior sister, I learned Tao from him."

    Pan Yu let out an ooh, hesitated and asked, "Hanwen, you, do you really want to become an immortal?" She also often heard that people abandoned their homes and careers and went into the mountains in order to seek immortality.  I don¡¯t know whether he has truly attained the Tao and become an immortal, or whether he has become a prey for wolves.  Anyway, we will never meet again in this world.  If Xu Xian really wants to cultivate immortality, there is no way to stop him.

    "I'm just learning some magic, but I haven't thought about becoming immortal. Don't worry, I won't leave Hangzhou."

    Pan Yu said expectantly: "The day of the first snow trial is coming soon. Stop running around and come and help me!"

    "Where do you need my help? Besides, I've made an agreement with them."

    "Well, let's go as promised."

    The next day, Xu Xian only slept until he was drowsy before getting up.

    Xu Xian yawned and asked, "Mingyu, where's breakfast?"

    "Ah, I was so busy that I forgot to bring it."

    "Then what should I eat?" Xu Xian is also used to being dependent.

    "Go and eat at the fish chef's place. Isn't she good at making pastries?"For more than ten days, Xu Xian went to Xuanji Temple every day to learn how to draw talismans and help Master Yu Xuanji solve the problem of eating. He did not come back until evening.  Fu Lu gradually became familiar with it, but the senior sister refused to hold his hand and teach him, saying that she would let him understand it by himself.

    Pan Yu glared at Xu Xian who had just come back: "Hanwen, tomorrow is the first snow test, you won't go to that mysterious view again!" Even she herself felt like a resentful woman, her husband went out to sleep in flowers and willows, and she  Gritting my teeth at home and guarding the empty room alone.  But because of her identity, she couldn't find any reason to restrain him, which was really frustrating.

    Xu Xian¡¯s original intention was that it didn¡¯t matter, so it wasn¡¯t his turn to participate in the first snow trial. It was just reciting poems and answering questions, which was not interesting.  But after hearing Pan Yu's words, he felt for some reason that something terrible would happen if he didn't agree, so he nodded: "Okay, let's go and see the excitement tomorrow."

    Pan Yu smiled softly: "Well, come and take a look if you want!"

    The next day, Xu Xian finally had his long-awaited breakfast and was extremely moved.  "Mingyu, aren't you busy today? You have time to bring food back."

    Pan Yu was grateful. Seeing him eating happily, she felt a little guilty in her heart. She hated herself for starving him. It wasn't his fault. It was all the fault of that vixen Yu Xuanji.  Hey, there are some thoughts, how will he know it, and when will he know it?  No, we will never know!  All he could do was look at him silently.

    Although it was already winter, Pan Yu looked up and saw that the sky was cloudless, and it didn't look like it would snow at all.  If it doesn¡¯t snow in the first snow trial, it will be a joke.  But Xu Xian was confident and comforted him: "Don't worry, senior sister won't make a mistake." He just went to Xuanji Temple to say that he won't be coming for the next few days.

    Hearing his comfort, I also liked it in my heart, but when I heard his senior sister called him so affectionately, I couldn't help but glare at him.  Seeing his inexplicably aggrieved look, I found it funny, so I pulled his sleeve as a comfort!

    Xu Xian, of course, had no idea how much the woman in front of him was thinking about at this moment, and he followed her inexplicably to the square where he had stayed when he first came to the academy.  The venue was packed with people, as many as a hundred people.  Xu Xian goes out early and comes back late these days, but he didn't expect so many people to come.  There were countless people watching the excitement around the square. Gentlemen from various academies were sitting on the high platform, acting like examiners.

    It was a prosperous time, the literary style in the south of the Yangtze River was flourishing, and there were many academies. Who wouldn¡¯t want to attend such a grand event as the First Snow Examination?  Being invited to take part in the first snow test proves that the academy has a certain standard, and you can show off to your neighbors when you go back.  If you don't participate, you will be considered second-rate.  Therefore, even if we don't have much financial resources, we will try our best to send one or two people to give it a try. If we really get a ranking and get into the top three, the academy's reputation will soar immediately, and we won't have to worry about rich families spending more money to send their children there.

    "It's been hard on you these days!" Xu Xian also regretted not coming to help her.

    When Pan Yu heard this, he felt as if he had eaten honey, and without saying a word, he pulled him and strode into the field.  It immediately caused waves of commotion.  Many of these scholars met Pan Yu without bowing and saying hello, firstly because they knew her identity, and secondly because her grace and bearing were really impressive.

    She is originally from the north. She has been practicing martial arts since she was a child. She is tall and tall. She usually doesn't realize it, but now in this crowd, she is like a wild crane among the chickens, and a pearl and jade among the tiles.  When people see it, they can only admire it.

    Xu Xian originally wanted to disappear into the crowd and quickly turn into a passerby, but he didn't expect Pan Yu to hold him tightly from beginning to end.  Xu Xian had no choice but to laugh along.  However, with so many people, we can't all participate. Of course, all the junior fellow students in the small academy will participate in the battle together, and I wish that all my husbands could help.  But the Great Academy cannot rely on its large number of people.  Therefore, to show fairness, only five people can participate.

    Among the five people from Jingtian Academy, Pan Yu naturally couldn't run away, and with Pan Yu still there, Xu Xian couldn't run away either.  He said he came to watch the fun, but he had already been arranged to participate.  The wooden nameplate has been hung on the wall, so naturally you can't run away at this time.  And it is said that someone outside the market has already announced the odds. Although I don¡¯t know how to calculate it specifically, someone must be able to make a lot of money based on this!

    Finally, he was told to sit down, and the rules read out were no more than no whispering, and he would be kicked out immediately if discovered.

    I don¡¯t know who shouted loudly, ¡°Let¡¯s put the question aside, students, please pay attention.¡±
