Nightfall Chapter 158: Crack! Click!

Chapter 158 Click! Click!

The people under the big green tree, looking at the young man smirking at the superb scenery at the edge of the boulder, were drawn with infinite feelings, silent and smiling, only the second brother still sat meticulously, and one with gray hair The old scholar of, holding an old book in his hand, was reading, and it seemed that everything that happened around him had nothing to do with him.

The melodious sound of Qingyuan's hole flute sounded, and the man picked up the long flute placed on his lap and blew it with a smile, followed by the sound of the ancient shamisen sounded by Zhengzheng. , With a light stroke in the mountain breeze, the tip of the needle trembled at high speed, making a clear sound similar to a metal percussion instrument. The strong man lifted a heavy hammer and slammed it to the ground with a bang, which was just as subtle and perfect. At the point in the music that needs excitement.

The sound of the flute, the sound of the piano, the sound of needles, and the sound of hammers, mixed together to become a quite ancient tune, spreading melodiously from under the green trees, covering the cliff on the top of the mountain behind the college, urging the clouds to flow slowly between the cliff , Urged the mountain pine to swagger slightly, as if welcoming guests.

Ning Que, standing above the boulder, listened to the ancient music floating in his ears, and looked back under the big green tree, looking at the men and women with different descriptions but with gentle smiles, looking at the tangerine Pipi under the tree Knowing that these people are the brothers and sisters on the second floor of the academy, they are expressing their welcome in this way, and they can't help but feel warm.

The warm feeling quickly turned to hot in his chest and abdomen, his eyes went dark, and he fell down like this.

Prince Longqing stood silently on the lawn under the boulder, as if he hadn’t heard this beautiful ancient song at all. The beautiful cheeks of Taohuayaoyao are still perfect, but his hair has been released for some time, with sweat. Wet messy draped over his shoulders.

He raised his head, looked at the green tree and said slowly: "Maybe it's a little ridiculous, lacking some demeanor, but I really don't accept it."

I don't know when, the second elder brother grew up in that ancient song and quietly came to the lawn. He looked at the expressionless cheeks of Prince Longqing, looked at the two gleams of light in the other's eyes, and said calmly: "If I were you, I would not accept it."

Prince Longqing was silent for a moment and said: "If you have achieved extinction and still cannot see through the choice, who can see through?"

The second brother looked at him with a slight pity on his face and said: "Extinction and extinction, it means that there is fear in the temperament, fear of choice, although I don’t know what you have seen before, and have experienced some What, but I can probably guess that Ning Que is different from you. There is no fear in his temperament, so he doesn't need to erase his heart as hard as you, and insist on extinction."

Prince Longqing stared into his eyes, and asked with deep incomprehension and unwillingness: "Fear is human nature. As long as it is human, it will be fear. Ning Que is also human. How could there be no in his temperament? Fear?"

The second brother was silent for a long time, seeming to feel that this question is indeed a bit puzzling, and shook his head and said: "Or this is the difference between a small fear and a big fear. You can all overcome the small fear in instinct, but if it involves The great fear between life and death, day and night, is not so easy."

The prince Longqing understood this sentence, his brows frowned suddenly, and asked: "You mean Ning Que has no faith."

The second brother replied: "Maybe so."

Prince Longqing was startled, and immediately laughed at himself sadly, and muttered: "Because I am too strong in my beliefs, I lost to a person who absolutely puts myself first and has no faith. This is how I can be reconciled."

The second brother was silent for a while and said: "Maybe Ning Que also has beliefs, but those things are too deep in his heart, so the illusion on the stone path cannot be found. It is even possible that he himself does not know what that belief is. ."

At this time, Chen Pipi, carrying Ning Que who was in a coma, walked down from the huge rock panting, and the fat on his cheeks quivered slightly with each step, like ripples in a lake. . He and the senior brothers and sisters under the big green tree were very clear that Ning Que fainted because of the heavy impact on the spiritual world today and the intense physical exhaustion until he finally succeeded in climbing to the summit and relaxed too suddenly. So I don’t worry much.

Prince Longqing looked at Chen Pipi’s back, and listened to the faint voice from under the green tree calling for the younger brother to take water. Suddenly he remembered a certain genius figure that the head teacher and the woman mentioned occasionally, and his pupils shrank slightly. Muttered: "Is this...is him?"

The second brother didn't seem to have thought of concealing Chen Pipi's identity, and said: "It's him."

The prince Longqing stared at the very busy fat boy who was called, remembering the sorrow and regret or anger when the head teacher and the woman in red dress mentioned him, he couldn't help but feel the contrast. Thinking of what happened to me today, I suddenly realized that it was not so bleak and unacceptable. He laughed at himself and shook his head and said: "A true genius like him will be called by you on the second floor of the Academy. I still think about it. It's a wishful thinking to be able to enter the building and shine."

"A real genius is a genius everywhere."

The second brother looked at his pale cheeks and said, "Since you know that he is the most genius young man in Guanli, then he is also a genius in the back mountain of my college, of course he is still a lot worse than me. But. You don’t have to be too disappointed. In fact, your performance today is already very good. If it weren’t for a guy like Ning Que, I would be very happy to meet you in the back mountain."

After prince Longqing was silent for a moment, he touched the ground for a long time, then turned and walked down the mountain.

The quietness of the front ping of the college has long been replaced by a buzzing sound similar to the flying bees. Although the high-ranking figures still remain reserved, ordinary officials and teaching students cannot suppress the excitement and curiosity in their hearts. They are eagerly looking forward to knowing who has achieved the final result of today's second-story mountaineering. victory.

At this moment, the professor who was in charge of the opening ceremony of the second floor of the college walked out slowly. The expression on his face is really strange, it seems very pleased, and a little shocked, it seems that he wants to laugh, but it seems that he doesn't laugh much because of certain things.

Before today, few people, including the students in the academy, knew the origin of this professor. But today, Mr. Professor presided over the ceremony for a whole day. After repeated inquiries, everyone finally knew that he was one of the few remaining rune masters, and where he dared to make trouble. Seeing him walking up the stone steps, he subconsciously stopped. After the discussion, just looking at the expression on his face, the waves in everyone's hearts reappeared, wanting to see some of the reasons from these expressions.

"Huang Crane, where are you rubbing?"

The only person in the field who dared to speak to Mr. Professor in this tone, dared to call out his name directly, and even deliberately added a word, naturally it was the South Gate of Datang Haotian who enshrines the runemaster Yan Se, whether it is The realm of the seniority is still age, and he is a bit older than Professor Huang He. At this time, he is already a little anxious, and seeing him clear his throat and dawdle, he has long been impatient.

"Today's College Enrollment on the second floor has already had results."

Professor Huang He didn't bother to argue with Yan Se, a well-known rune master, so he cleared his throat and spoke directly.

Suddenly Yan Se thought of some possibility, stood up anxiously, reached out to stop him: "Don't panic!"

Seeing that the drama that has been waiting for a day and a night is coming to an end, I can finally know the true appearance of the actor after taking off the silver mask, but he is interrupted again. The people on the front of the college are in awe of Yan Se The identity of the runemaster did not endure a burst of hiss after all, and he couldn't blame the crowd. No matter how powerful your runemaster was, you would never be able to kill all the hundreds of people in the field.

Professor Huang He glared at Yan Se unceremoniously, thinking that you were the one who urged him, but at this time he let himself not panic and said, what mystery is this, he asked in a deep voice: "Why not panic? "

"What a big event is the opening of the second floor of the academy. Although the Master is not in Beijing for a trip to the country, you can't do this perfunctory. Before you announce the result, should you first bathe and change your clothes and burn incense to worship the sky?"

Yan Se rushed up the stone steps, walked up to Professor Huang He, and said awe-inspiringly.

The boos in the audience suddenly became louder, and even the princes Li Peiyan and Li Yu couldn't help looking at this old-fashioned look.

Yan Se listened to the drum noise in the audience, even though his face was as thick as an old tree, he couldn't help feeling a little feverish, but his hunger for the heirs finally defeated his shame, which was not much shame. Stared at the audience and shouted: "Who dares to say that what I said is wrong, stand up and challenge me!"

Listening to these words, there was no sound in the audience. Whether it was the priest Li Li or the doctors of the college who were displeased, they turned their faces and wanted to be with you, a well-trained rune master. pick? We are not crazy.

Professor Huang He looked at him displeased and said: "Uncle Yan, what do you want to do?"

There are very few teachers in the world, and the order of their teachers has nothing to do with their respective sects. That is another simple and complex system, and there is no need to say more here. In fact, what Yan Se was thinking at this time was very simple. He was just thinking, if the result announced is really the result that he and his junior brother would never want to hear, and the whole world would listen to it, wouldn’t it be immediately Is it a foregone conclusion?

In spite of the opposition of everyone in Qianping of the college, Yan Se dragged Professor Huang He into a bookstore. Those who entered the bookstore with them are those who are qualified to participate in this matter, or have the power to change the final result. Big shot.

The priest Li's expression was a little confused. He felt that he must have heard something wrong just now, so he cast an inquiring look at His Royal Highness beside him. However, Li Peiyan's expression was also a little weird. He felt that he might not have heard it wrong. It was only possible that Professor Huang He had misread the result when he announced the result. To prove his guess, he looked at his niece beside him.

There is no expression on Li Yu’s beautiful face, because although she has guessed countless times and even expected this result countless times in today’s long climbing time, when this result does appear, she still strongly It shocked her spiritual world and made it difficult for her to recover for a while.

The priest Li Li's gaze slowly flicked across the faces of several big figures, and the response he got was the kind he didn't want to see most. He slowly stood up, looking at Professor Huang He in a daze. Doubt said: "You said it was...Ning Que who climbed the top of the mountain?"

Professor Huang He sighed and said: "It is indeed Ning Que."

The priest Li Li stood stiffly by the chair, unable to speak a word for a long time.

As the vice president of the Tianyuyuan of the Xiling Temple, this time he led a delegation to visit the Datang Chang'an City under the command of the teacher. The main purpose is to fulfill the secret agreement between the two countries and send Prince Longqing into The two-story academy.

For the academy, the priest Li has no good feelings for the priest. In his opinion, it is not necessary for a patron of heaven like Prince Longqing to enter the second floor of the academy for further studies, but since this is the arrangement of the temple, and the whole world is now Knowing that Prince Longqing would enter the second floor of the academy and agree to let the prince enter the second floor of the academy, then he must enter, because this represents the glory and dignity of the Xiling Temple. But who would have thought that after such a long wait, someone else would finally enter the second floor!

Thinking that if this incident were to be passed back to Xiling, under the anger of the headmaster, he might have been punished, and thinking of the hundreds of millions of Taoists in the world, they might be shaken by the fear of the temple because of this incident. Feeling that it has been washed with ice water from head to toe, it exudes a biting chill from the inside out, and muttered, "Impossible, impossible."

Suddenly he looked at Professor Huang He and waved angrily to protest: "How can an ordinary college student defeat the prince Longqing! The prince is only one step away from knowing his fate. What kind of student is that student! The college must have done something! "

In fact, if the people outside the bookstore who are still waiting for the result know this result, they will probably have the same view as the priest Mo Li. It is not the invincible Wang Jinglue who competes with Prince Longqing today. It's an ordinary college student who borrowed the nameless or even no one knew he could practice beforehand. Can this kind of person defeat Prince Longqing?

Can the voles defeat the goshawk? Can ants defeat the lion? Can the Embroidery Lady defeat General Xiahou? No, these are all impossible things, just like Ning Que cannot defeat Prince Longqing, unless God makes the goshawk break its wings and break its sharp beak, unless God turns the lion into a pile of carrion in advance, unless the queen empress Marry the Embroidery Lady to General Xiahou as his wife!

Ning Que can defeat Prince Longqing unless the academy secretly cheats.

The big figures in the bookstore also turned their doubts and questions to Professor Huang He.

Professor Huang He forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and slowly explained with a blank face: "According to the facts I know, Prince Longqing is indeed very good in climbing. If placed in previous years, he will definitely be able to enter easily. The academy’s two-story building, but this year you and I know that the two-story building only recruits one person, and Ning Que’s performance in climbing is indeed better than the prince."

The priest Li Peiyan sat down in his chair, and suddenly saw Prince Li Peiyan beside him, as if grasping the last straw, and said: "His Royal Highness, according to the previous agreement, the prince will succeed the prince Yan to enter Chang'an City. On the second floor, if it’s not a student for the Master, how can my Xiling Temple let the prince leave the adjudication department? If the college finds a reason not to accept it, then..."

Li Peiyan frowned slightly, feeling very embarrassed. The Datang royal family has always respected and loved the academy and never arbitrarily interfered. It was just that Prince Longqing had entered Chang'an City as the second person in the Xiling Temple Ruling Division. The two sides did indeed agree. The secret agreement, His Majesty the Emperor also expressed his approval for this agreement. If Prince Longqing cannot enter the second floor, this matter will indeed become very troublesome.

In advance, whether it was the Xiling Temple or the Royal Family of the Datang Empire, no one could have imagined that someone could defeat Prince Longqing and enter the second floor of the academy first. There was no relevant plan at all.

Li Peiyan looked at Professor Huang He, hesitated for a while and said: "I think this matter should be discussed in the long term..."

Professor Huang He has no expression on his face.

Li Peiyan looked at Yan Se and Father Lin, who had been sitting silently in the corner, thinking that your Majesty and Nanmen would ask you two to come over and wait to see the results. Naturally, they have the responsibility of monitoring. At this time, you always To express an opinion, choose a position.

Lin Gonggong felt the gaze cast by His Royal Highness, and he stood up and smiled and said to everyone: "Your Majesty asked me to come to the academy to pick up people. It has nothing to do with what you adults are discussing. I naturally can't speak on behalf of the palace." /

"Let me express my opinion. I firmly oppose Ning Que entering the second floor."

Yan Se blew his beard and stared and said: "You can know with your ass, how can that guy be better than Prince Longqing? How could he reach the top of the mountain earlier than Prince Longqing? The college...There must be a problem."

Professor Huang He's face darkened and looked at him and said, "Uncle Yan, you and I are familiar, but you still need evidence."

Yan Se glared at him and said, "Is there evidence in the college that he did not cheat?"

Huang He listened to his unreasonable words, and said angrily: "Uncle Master, are you going to start shameless again?"

"What if I just played it?" Yan Se teased with wretched triangular eyes and exclaimed: "The Master is not in Chang'an City anyway."

Since the Master is not in Chang'an City, not in the academy, he has nothing to fear as the South Gate of Haotian. As a sacred and lofty runemaster, he has no scruples about this matter. It's a bit upright.

The big figures in the bookstore looked at Yan Se's impassioned disapproval. They were all stunned, thinking of the previous statements on the stone ping, and they couldn't help but wonder what happened to the South Gate of Haotian today? Actually so support Xiling Temple?

The priest Mo Li looked at Yan Se’s back and felt strange, thinking that when you returned to the temple last year, you humiliated the dean of the Tianyu Academy, and even had a fight with the priest. Why is this today? , Could it be that you cherish talent for Prince Longqing?

Xicai is indeed Xicai, but the priest Li Qiye couldn't guess who Yan Se was desperately opposed to want to regret.

Professor Huang He looked at Yan Se coldly and said: "Uncle Master, although you have a respected status and a high level of seniority, this is after all a college affair, so it is of no use if you hold your neck to object."

Yan Se furiously said: ""The Academy is the academy of the world, and everyone in the world has reason to raise questions and opinions. The academy is Datang's academy. As a member of Datang, I am more qualified to oppose it. You say it is useless to oppose it, but I still want to oppose it. Ning Que just can't enter the second floor! "

I don't know when, Li Yu quietly walked out of the bookstore and came to the front ping of the college.

An official of the Princess Mansion stood behind her, unable to conceal the shock on her face. He learned the final result of today’s mountain climbing from His Highness. He couldn't help but remember that he had suggested that His Highness Ning Que this person and If there is no future for training, I can't help feeling regretful.

"After tonight, countless people will go to check Ning Que’s details, and they will definitely find out that he escorted His Highness back to Beijing last year. In any case, Ning Que is relatively close to us, and His Highness should not have come out before. You should make sure he enters the second floor."

Li Yuwei laughed and said: "The big people in it are older than me, and they have seen more things than me, but they have forgotten some of the most important things. The opening of the second floor is to accept students for the master. To be the first to climb the mountain, the Master chose him as a student. In that case, no matter how long and fierce they are, there is no point unless the Master changes his mind after returning to China."

She looked up at the mountain behind the academy, thinking of how excited the young man on the top of the mountain should be at this time, thinking of the murderous return journey last spring, thinking of her recruitment but was rejected In the past, the brows could not help showing a few touches of confusion, and muttered blankly: "At that time, I thought I had valued you enough, and the price of sincerity was enough. Now it seems that I know that those are still not enough. Understand why you rejected me in the first place."

The official looked at the expression on His Highness’s face, guessed what she was feeling, and said in a low voice of relief: "His Royal Highness treats his little maid kindly. Hears that he has a close relationship with the little maid. Read your Highness a bit of kindness."

"These are two different things." Li Yu slowly shook his head, and frowned after a moment of silence: "Of course, it can become the same thing now."

The people in the front courtyard of the college have their ears erected, wanting to hear what the big figures in the room are talking about, and want to know who is the first to reach the top of the mountain and who finally enters the second floor of the college.

Many people noticed that the princess left the room very early and stood quietly not far away with her subordinates. People quietly watched the look on her face, trying to guess the fact from her eyebrows the truth.

And people like Situ Yilan who are close to His Royal Highness do not need to look at her face from a very long distance. She walked directly to Li Yu, and after a respectful salute, she asked with a nervous expression in her voice. Said: "His Royal Highness, who has won?"

Li Yu looked at the direction of the bookstore and listened to the faintly heated disputes inside. Suddenly he raised his eyebrows, and a faint smile appeared on his face. He decided to cut the mess with a knife and settle the matter in advance. .

"He won."

It's just three simple words without mentioning the name of the winner, but Situ Yilan certainly understood what Li Yu wanted to express, and she raised her hand to cover her mouth in disbelief, and exclaimed. Blocked back, the shining eyes were full of shock and joy.

After all, the exclamation couldn't be covered by the palm of the hand. The girl's surprise cheers broke the tranquility of the college at night. She jumped up excitedly, ran to the crowd with a smile, and shook her female partner's hand desperately.

At this time, Situ Yilan didn't need to say anything, everyone knew the final result, and there was dead silence on the stone flat.

Zhong Dajun's face was blue, and he murmured, "How...how...how could it be him?"

Xie Chengyun's body shook slightly, gently letting Jin Wucai's support beside him open, standing stubbornly, looking at Situ Yilan with a pale face, and said with a low voice, "You always knew he was hiding Strength, so you have been waiting to see our jokes."

Since the summer exam, Ning Que has been marginalized by the college students. Only Situ Yilan and Chu Youxian have treated him as they did. Chu is a rich family, and he is not the same as the college students. , And Situ Yilan was born in the door of a wealthy family, and Xie Chengyun and other talents belong to the same world, but he has always taken care of Ning Que. Xie Chengyun and the students of the academy were shocked today, but when they thought about the scene carefully, they naturally thought that Situ Yilan knew some of Ning Que's secrets.

Situ Yilan looked at the pale Xie Chengyun and the shocked wood-like academy students, and said with a sneer: "I don’t know what strength Ning Que hides. I only know that if it hadn’t been for the past six months, Look at his jokes, so today, you will not become the biggest joke in the world."

In the eyes of the students of the academy in the past, Ning Que was a guy with a mean temper, the biggest joke in the academy this year. However, seeing him climb the mountain today, the students found that Situ Yilan’s mockery was so humiliating. It's so appropriate, they themselves are the biggest joke in the world.

With a soft bang, all the last pieces of pastry left in Chu Youxian's hands fell to the floor. He stared blankly at the mountain behind the academy, and thought ecstatically in his heart that he actually knew such a great one. Guy, let your father know this, dare you still say that all I get to know in the academy are friends? Dad, you made a big mistake this time!

The crows and birds on the stone flat are silent, and the lives are in deep shame. Some people even quietly lowered their heads, which are usually proud and raised. Some people become a little numb and stunned because of this mental shock. .

At this moment, an angry outcry rang out from the bookstore and exploded on the stone flat.

"Ning Que's cultivation is so bad, how can he let him enter the second floor!"

Zhong Dajun barely recovered from the violent mental shock, listening to the violent drink, as if grabbing the last sharp knife, raised his eyebrows and quickly said: "Listen, listen, that's Yan Master Se is talking... He said that Ning Que’s cultivation level is poor and he cannot enter the second floor. Master Yan Se, that’s Master Yan Se. I heard that he is a legendary rune master and a brother of my Datang State Master. Even his old man thinks so, so who is sure that Ning Que will be able to enter the second floor?"

He turned his head, stared at Situ Yilan with a godless gaze, and said, "Have you heard? Things are not what you think."

In the bookstore, Yan Se's face was green and roared: "I see it, this is my token of the South Gate of Vast Sky. What I said today represents the attitude of the South Gate of Vast Sky. I think whether it is Xiling Temple or Your Majesty, should you respect it?"

Professor Huang He looked at him like an idiot. After a long silence, he frowned and asked: "Uncle Master, what do you want to do in the academy today? Can you directly put forward your request, and then Let's see if we can discuss it?"

"Hey..." Yan Se's expression changed suddenly, and he pointed at Huang He with a beaming eyebrow and said, "You said it yourself. If you don't discuss a result that satisfies me later, I won't follow it."

Professor Huang He wanted to cry without tears and looked at this runemaster, who is probably the most senior in the city of Chang'an, and said, "You speak first."

Yan Se coughed twice and said: "Speaking of realm cultivation, Ning Que is too far behind Prince Longqing, but when it comes to some side-by-side skills, I think he still has some cultivation potential, so I don’t think he Suitable for entering the second floor of the academy, and more suitable for being my apprentice."

What he said was as plain as possible, and his expression as natural as possible, but this sentence still caused the big figures in the bookstore to suddenly change color, Professor Huang He stared and took a step forward, and the priest stood up in surprise. .

"You mean...Ning Que has the potential to become a runemaster?" Professor Huang He stared at him and asked.

Yan Se looked at his expression, deeply regretted in his heart, and secretly said that he had endured for so long, why he did not hold back at this critical moment, so he decided to break the can, and said with a cold snort: "Yes So what? He was my first fancy."

In this world, the descendants of the runemaster... are as rare and rare as the legendary Fengyu. Both for the runemaster himself and his sect, it is too important. At this time, hearing Yan Se's confirmation of this matter, the big figures in the room could no longer remain calm. The priest Li Qiye even took a few steps forward, staring at Yan Se angrily and said: "Uncle! Now that I have discovered the potential to become a runemaster Candidates, you should inform the temple as soon as possible!"

"Nonsense, let me know first, is there any porridge and rice I have?" Yan Se said with a stare.

Now it's Professor Huang He's turn to open his eyes and smile. He looked at Yan Se and said gratefully: "Uncle Master, do you think our college will let Ning Que go after knowing this?"

Yan Se changed his color suddenly, pointing at the yellow crane and roaring angrily: "Oh, you shameless villain! If you didn't say you can discuss it before, why should I tell you this!"

"Consultation is naturally a matter of discussion. If all discussions have pre-results, why bother to discuss." Professor Huang He said triumphantly, thinking that today the second floor of the college won a new doorman, and there may even be more in the future A rune master is very pleased.

Yan Se angrily said: "You are rascal and shameless!"

Huang He smiled and said: "Learn from Uncle Master."

Yan Se beard screamed frantically, and shouted furiously: "I have been looking for such a good talent as Ning Que in half my life, and whoever dares to **** this disciple from me, I will not be at odds with him, even if I burn my body to pieces. He will also be thwarted!"

Huang He trembled slightly, and smiled: "Uncle Master's words are so harsh. If Master Nephew hadn't had an entire college behind him, he might be really scared."

"My Yan Se was half my life... Ning Que... good talent... apprentice... not at odds with each other... broken bones... blowing ashes."

The words of the **** rune master Yan Se in anger came out of the bookstore like thunder, and exploded on the stone ping of the college.

The smile that Zhong Dajun just squeezed out suddenly froze on his face, looking extremely funny.

If Ning Que succeeded in reaching the summit and entered the second floor of the academy, it was the first thunder that struck the students of the academy, then at this time a respected rune master shouted so frantically that he wanted to take Ning. Lack of being a disciple meant that Ning Que might become a rune master in the future, which was like the second thunder in everyone's mind.

After the thunder, all the students in the academy were shocked by electric shocks, standing foolishly on the stone flat, not knowing how to speak.

Chu Youxian looked at Zhong Dajun, who was pale, and sighed sympathetically, "If I were you, I would go to the stove to pick up a piece of sour tofu that stayed overnight and hit it to death. This way, fresh tofu will not be wasted, and the taste will tell you that The sour words are very speculative."
