Nightfall Chapter 148: A silent view of the mountains overnight

Chapter One Hundred and Forty-Eight, Silent View of Mountain View in One Night

After Ning Que said these words, the old house was quiet. Chen Pipi stared at his eyes and was silent for a long time. His thick lips moved slightly, and he said: "You are so long. It's beautiful."

Ning Que hated the words, and stared at the other person’s eyes in anger. He gritted his teeth and said in a cold voice, “Even if you refuse to disclose the exam questions, why would you speak to me in this manner? I still don’t believe that without your help, I will Can’t get on the second floor!"

Chen Pippi looked at him and shook his head with pity, and said: "You said many times before that you wanted to enter the second floor, but I didn't care much at the time. I thought that although your qualifications are much worse than mine, but after the emperor. For more than half a year, it is not difficult to beat the ordinary people like Xie Chengyun, but... who would have thought that the Xiling Temple would be willing to let Longqing come to Chang'an City, and compare him, You really have no hope at all."

"I remember very clearly. A few days ago, you said that in your eyes, Prince Longqing or something, that is, some cats and dogs. Now you say that I am totally unqualified to compare with him. That means I am even a cat and a dog in your eyes. Not as good?"

Ning Que said furiously, waving his sleeves.

Chen Pipi raised his fleshy arm, patted him on the shoulder, and sincerely comforted him: "Why make it so clear, I'm worried that this will hurt your self-esteem too much, so I can't say it straight."

"Then what does it matter if you tell me the exam questions?" Ning Que said angrily, "It's no good for you if I can't enter the second floor. Prince Longqing entered the second floor and found that you are the genius who escaped home. , You are even more troublesome!"

"Because of your bad luck."

Chen Pippi looked at him sympathetically and said: "The master and the big brother have not returned home. Although the second floor is opened according to the date set last year, the person in charge of this matter has become the second brother and the front yard. Gentlemen professors."

"Professors will not tell me the exam questions. Even if I know, I can’t risk being beaten by the second senior brother to tell you that the second senior brother is serious and he hates the shameless tactics of the underworld in this life. , If you let him know that you want to go through my back door, even if you enter the second floor, you will be beaten out by him."

He patted Ning Que's shoulder again, comfortingly said: "Your luck is really bad. If the Master and Big Brother are here, they will all speak very well. Maybe I will intercede, and the Master will agree to invite you in. It's a pity on the second floor."

Ning Que sat cross-legged on the floor in a daze, thinking that if what Chen Pippi said was true, then his luck was indeed extremely scumbag, and couldn't help but sigh with a bitter face, "I want to talk about this dean Really, there are so many fun places in the world. It is too irresponsible to not return to the academy after playing for a year."

Chen Pipi dismissed him with disdain: "You look forward to the Master rushing back to the academy, don't you just hope that he is irresponsible?"

For a moment of silence, Ning Que patted the floor heavily, raised his head to stare into Chen Pippi’s eyes, and said seriously: “Okay, I don’t expect you to vent your questions, but you have to tell me at least what’s going on in the exam for the second floor. Exam. Knowing the general scope and methods of the exam is better than being confused now."

"This can be said." Chen Pipi picked up the crab roe porridge and swallowed a small bowl, and said vaguely: "But this kind of thing is nothing to say?"

"How do you tell?" Ning Que asked nervously.

"Because the test method is different every time the second floor is opened, the specific test content is determined by the master several years in advance. It may be for you to write a picture, or it may be for you to draw a picture. A painting, it may be that you go to the wetland to swim twice, or it may be faster than someone who eats, just say that year..."

Chen Pipi started to introduce with great interest, but Ning Que's thoughts drifted to other places. When he heard that it might be writing and painting, his mind buzzed, and he was very happy. , But then I heard those words later, the happiness or surprise suddenly turned into a sense of panic and extreme absurdity.

"Wait, wait, swim and eat? What does this mean? What is this test?"

Chen Pipi put down the crab porridge in her hand, looked at him innocently, and said, "I am not a master, how do I know what the test is, but these are what I heard from the seniors. There will be no fakes."

Ning Que raised his brows slightly and looked at his fat face, still wondering: "Then...what did you take the exam back then?"

When Chen Pipi heard this question, she gently flicked her sleeves to wipe off the non-existent dust on the hem, and a calm and calm smile appeared on her face. She was so calm and calm, she said slowly: "He You said that I am a genius who has never been born in this world. That year, I took the six courses and went straight into the second floor. The master greeted me with a smile on the mountain road, and the senior brother rubbed my head profusely. I have been tested for ability, should this be called exemption?"

Ning Que looked at the unbearable triumphant expression in his two small bean-like eyes, and suddenly a very strong urge to beat him up in his heart, but thought that this fat man was more than Prince Longqing The vigorous cultivator in the realm of life-consciousness had no choice but to dispel the idea with a sneer, and said with a sneer: "In my opinion, you are just a big pot of steamed buns."

Chen Pipi touched his head, curiously asked: "Is it so cute and white and fat?"

"No, this means that you are purely a foodie!" Ning Que yelled angrily: "Loss you claim to be the treasure of the academy, the most favored younger brother on the second floor, but you don’t know the question. You still don’t know what you might take, but I actually put all my hopes on you and bought you such an expensive bowl of porridge!"

He thinks of Prince Longqing's pretentious posture when the second floor opens tomorrow, thinking of his bleak end, and seeing Chen Pipi's helpless look, he becomes more annoyed and reaches out to grab the porridge bowl beside him He came over and poured the remaining half bowl of crab roe porridge into his stomach in one go.

"Oh, why are you drinking it all!"

Chen Pipi didn’t know if it was because of the crab roe congee being robbed, or was scolded by Ning Que as a foodie. At this time, he was extremely angry, pointing to his nose and yelling, “I’m a useless foodie! If you don’t have this genius, you Ah..."

"My...it's really useless." Ning Que lowered his head, unable to see his expression, only heard the voice a little tired and weak, and the tone was a little dull and low, "In fact, I always thought I was a real genius. I learn everything very quickly, including killing horses, cattle, and chickens, but practicing this thing really hits my confidence. After so many years of tossing, I finally made some noise last year, but now I see Prince Longqing, I can’t I gave birth to the confidence to confront him directly, and I subconsciously came to you directly for help."

He raised his head, looked at Chen Pippi and laughed at himself and said: "I really want to enter the second floor, but I really don't have the confidence to defeat Long Qing and become the only one."

In the past six months, Chen Pipi watched Ning Que progress from an ordinary young man who didn’t know anything about cultivation to his current state. He had already believed that this partner of the same age was also a genius, just very interesting. The thing is, because Ning Que lacks a normal frame of reference, he doesn't know this.

But Ning Que's time to step into the world of practice is too short after all. Needless to say, compared with him, even if it is Prince Longqing, it is still a mountain that he still can't reach.

Looking at his self-deprecating expression, Chen Pipi developed a strong feeling of sympathy. After sighing, he smiled and said: "Although it is difficult for me, a peerless genius, to understand your ordinary people's distress, but...like this half It’s the same for the past years. If you have any questions about practice in the future, you can still ask me, in that case, it doesn’t matter whether you enter the second floor of the academy or not?"

Ning Que shook his head and replied with a soft smile: "Like now, I am learning from you, so no matter how well I learn, I will never be able to surpass you, but if I have the opportunity to learn from the dean What?"

Hearing these words, Chen Pipi's small eyes widened, and the little sympathy he had just spawned suddenly did not know where he flew, and exclaimed, "Can you reach my level, you are not satisfied!" "

Ning Que leaned back tiredly against the wall, closed his eyes and didn't bother to speak again, that little appearance was extremely disappointed.

Chen Pipi looked unbearable, and suddenly raised two eyebrows that were tight under her smooth forehead, and said in a low voice, "Actually... those who can enter the second floor are not necessarily spiritual geniuses. The fifth brother is a blacksmith. A good blacksmith born."

Ning Que suddenly opened his eyes.

Chen Pipi didn’t look at him, and continued to frown and said: “The teacher’s most important thing is the character of the students, so every time the second floor is opened, the character is also assessed. So no matter how the test is done tomorrow, what the content of the assessment is. All you need to do is to stay true to your heart, and then achieve the ultimate, then maybe you still have some chance."

"Extreme?" Ning Que repeated thoughtfully.

"It's late at night, go back quickly."

Chen Pipi glanced at the stars in the spring night outside the west window, and said: "It's not a few hours since the second floor opened."

Ning Que returned to Old Bi Zhai in Lin 47 Lane, but he was unable to fall asleep. He was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling above his head, his eyes were extremely tense, and his body was a little tense because of the tension.

He doesn’t even know why he has such a strong desire to enter the second floor of the academy—probably because of his infinite yearning for the world of practice since he was a child, and years of hard work as he continued to bleed up the building last year. , So that every cell in his body loves that world more and more, because when he finally stepped into that magical world last year, after seeing more strange scenery, he wanted to see more scenery more and more.

When people climbed up a dangerous peak after all their hardships, they looked up and saw a higher mountain faintly in the distance among the white clouds. If they can overcome their fatigue, then people always want to walk. Go to that higher mountain and see more and more beautiful scenery that you haven't seen before. Climbing the tower to view the mountains, climbing the mountains and the city, sitting on the top of the cloud to see the world, life should be like this.

Sangsang sat on the side of the bed and looked at him nervously. The little hand held his hand slightly, trying to convey a certain strength. There was a reluctant and sincere smile on his little black face, wanting to convey a certain confidence.

On this night in the spring of the fourteenth year of the Apocalypse, the whole city of Chang'an and even the whole world are paying attention to the opening of the second floor of the Academy tomorrow, but no one knows about this. , For that ordinary teenager who has been cruelly judged to be unable to practice since childhood, how important it is.
