Raising the Demon

Chapter 271 One Exam, Three Sessions, Nine Days
Zi Baifeng turned his head to look in the direction of General Yu, but his eyes were dazzled by the sunlight shining through the window.

He tilted his head back, the sun was still dazzling.

He tilted his head to the right again, and the glare of the sun still shone on his face.

He frowned and muttered, "Who, close the window!"

General Yu stepped forward speechlessly and closed the window.

King Zhuan was even more speechless, looking at Zi Baifeng: "Did you... fall into the pit?"

"Ah?" Zi Baifeng looked blankly in the direction of King Zhuan, then turned around and planned to leave, "I'm leaving..."

"Wait!" King Zhuan stood up from behind the desk and grabbed Zi Baifeng, what a crime, this child is so busy.

"I asked you to come to ask you, how are you going to try and prepare?"

"Will try? What will try?" Zi Baifeng didn't have this string in his head at all.

"I will try, tomorrow will be the test." King Zhuan waved his hand, seeing that Zi Baifeng's eyes were still out of focus, he couldn't help but sighed again.

"Take him down, help him take a bath, change his clothes, and take a good rest..." Before King Zhuan could finish his sentence, Zi Baifeng suddenly shuddered and turned his head: "Will you try? You said you would try." ? When will you try?"

"...Tomorrow..." King Zhuan was speechless.

"Ah..." Zi Baifeng slapped his head suddenly, "Fortunately, that's right!"

"Tomorrow, there's still time, I'll finish the bridge first." Zi Baifeng turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait." King Zhuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, it was the first time he saw someone avoid him in such a hurry.

"It's just a test, I know it in my heart!" Seeing General Yu come to pull him, Zi Baifeng was very upset, he was still struggling, and was pulled down by General Yu.

Not long after, General Yu came back with a wry smile, and said to King Zhuan, "Your Majesty..."

"What?" King Zhuan found out that after meeting Zi Baifeng, these few of his family's cronies were much less able to do things.

"Let him run away." General Yu smiled wryly, he couldn't lock Zi Baifeng up, he had to go back no matter what, and General Yu couldn't stop him.

……

Dongting, Gongyuan, early morning.

Starting early in the morning, the entire Gongyuan was blocked by carriages. Even so, a group of servants from Dushuifu pulled up the fence and worked in the middle, enclosing a large area of ​​land, which aroused complaints from everyone.

For this exam, people from Xijing were not the only ones who came to Mengcheng. People of all kinds rushed here. Some people were already gray-haired, but they were still chasing fame.

Candidates of all colors verified their integrity at the gate of the tribute courtyard, and filed into the tribute courtyard.

Lian Yunping with a white horse and light fur coat, Jin Taiyu who was young and wealthy, and many others all went in one by one.

Deputy Envoy Lu lay on the outside of the fence, looked inside anxiously, and shouted: "My lord, my lord, hurry up, if you don't go, it will be too late!"

Zi Baifeng was lying at the bottom of the pit, arranging jade stones one by one, when he heard the urgent shouts from above, Zi Baifeng said impatiently: "Don't shout, isn't it too early?"

"Oh, my lord!" Deputy Envoy Lu jumped anxiously, "It's still early, what time is it, and the door will be closed in a quarter of an hour, so hurry up...you guys, hurry up Pull him up!"

Deputy Envoy Lu pointed at a few imperial guards stalking nearby, and said loudly.

One of these forbidden soldiers is actually a captain of the forbidden army. In terms of rank, it is higher than Deputy Lu's. , held Zi Baifeng up, and dragged him up.

"Oh, my lord, hurry up and wash your face." Deputy Envoy Lu was like a hard-hearted old housekeeper, pulling Zi Baifeng, and pushing him into a basin of water. Sleeves, I undid the bag, and pulled off Zi Baifeng's coat, Deputy Envoy Lu took another green skirt, and helped Zi Baifeng put it on indiscriminately.

"Hair, hair!" Seeing that Zi Baifeng's hair was messed up, Deputy Envoy Lu hurried to help Zi Baifeng with his hair.

"Let me come." Zi Wu's voice came from one side.

"Brother, eat something." Little Shitou bounced up to him, holding a food box in both hands.

Zijian and Fu Jun stood side by side, looking at this side with a smile, Fu Jun's wife and Zi Wu stepped forward to help, combing Zi Baifeng's disheveled hair.

"Father, mother, Lord Fu..." Zi Baifeng wanted to say hello, but Zi Wu slapped him on the head: "Eat your food."

Luo Qianshan stood beside him, smiling like a mouse who stole oil.

Zi Baifeng ate like a wolf, stood up and was about to leave.

"Brother, your bookcase!" Xiao Shitou quickly brought another bookcase and handed it to Zi Baifeng.

Zi Baifeng took it, turned around and strode towards the entrance of the Gongyuan.

Arriving at the gate of the Gongyuan, Zi Baifeng wanted to say goodbye after checking his identity, so he turned around.

There are three exams in a row, three days in one exam, which is a waste of nine days. If not, Zi Baifeng doesn't need to rush to make progress before the exam.

During these nine days, eating, drinking, and lassing have to be inside, but a hard job is especially difficult for Zi Baifeng.

Turning back, Zi Baifeng was stunned.

Zijian, Ziwu, Xiaoshitou, Fujun, Fujun's wife, Luo Qianshan and others stood together. Behind them, there were dense crowds of heads. Officials, servants, and imperial soldiers all stood there, staring at each other. look at him.

"My lord, come on! Destroy them!" Standing in the crowd, Ge Tou'er waved his fist and shouted.

"Baifeng, don't come back if you don't pass the exam!" Luo Qianshan shouted.

"My lord, come on!" Countless voices yelled, attracting the attention of everyone nearby.

"Definitely live up to expectations." Zi Baifeng cupped his hands, turned around and strode away.

Seeing Zi Baifeng's figure disappear into the tribute courtyard, everyone felt a little lost.

……

The house is small, four feet wide and five feet long, with two layers of wood, it carries all the dreams.

A few soldiers stood outside with their chests and bellies protruding. They were the only people in this tribute courtyard who worked harder than the examinees.

Zi Baifeng didn't like this house very much. He had taken this kind of exam more than once, but he was still unhappy.

However, seeing the house this time, Zi Baifeng immediately took down the wooden planks as if he saw his own father, put them on top, and fell asleep.

Damn, I can finally sleep well.

This time I slept in the dark, until the sun was westward, and the first day passed like this.

The soldiers outside looked at him speechlessly. Everyone else looked at the test questions first, but this man was lucky enough to take a nap first.

Not to mention after sleeping, after waking up, this guy brought out a lot of food, such as dried meat, salted bacon, small pastries, preserved fruits...

Mrs. Wu prepared a lot of various foods. For the convenience of carrying and eating, each one was made of extremely small pieces, and when bitten into the mouth, the aroma was overflowing.

"Shift changed." A soldier walked over from the side and said to the middle-aged soldier guarding Zi Baifeng.

"Oh, good..." The soldier swallowed, rubbed his belly, turned and left.

In the dead of night, the soldiers hugged their weapons, leaned against the wall, and dozed off with their heads curled up. The tossing and turning people in the dormitory seemed to have fallen asleep too.

The soldier who was dozing off opposite Zi Baifeng's house slowly opened his eyes.

His movements were very slow and gentle, as if worried that opening his eyes too quickly would wake up Zi Baifeng, he walked slowly, walked outside Zi Baifeng's cell, and stabbed Zi Baifeng's vest with a knife.

Even if he stabbed at Zi Baifeng's vest, his speed was still extremely slow, just like a lover's gentle touch.

But at this moment, Zi Baifeng suddenly smiled: "You finally made a move."

When Zi Baifeng laughed, the soldier suddenly flew back, but it was too late.

In fact, when the soldier came to change shifts, Zi Baifeng discovered that the soldier had aura.

No matter what the monks do, it is impossible for them to become ordinary soldiers. What's more, the other party's cultivation method is undoubtedly the way Xia Junguo followed.

In fact, Zi Baifeng had already expected that he would be attacked. These days, he was always protected by the imperial guards, and only today was considered an order.

However, has Zi Baifeng ever really been alone?
With a sword strike, his head flew up, Zi Baifeng pulled down the door curtain to block the spray of blood, then curled his lips, buried his head and fell asleep again.

It wasn't until a long time later that a candidate who got up in the middle of the night stepped on the soldier's head in a daze, and then he let out a scream, which alarmed the whole dormitory.

But the commotion soon subsided, and when Zi Baifeng heard footsteps outside again, he saw Lao Gong's helpless eyes.

In fact, he had been guarding Zi Baifeng not far away, but he didn't expect that someone would sneak in.

In fact, it is not surprising that Jiuying's people are good at disguise, and these soldiers are forbidden to talk to each other, so it is naturally difficult to find out.

But in this way, Lao Gong had a hard time, he simply changed into an ordinary soldier's clothes, and directly guarded Zi Baifeng's door.

Almost every night, when Zi Baifeng woke up, he could see one or two more bloodstains outside the door. These people had been fighting for several days and finally gave up.

However, Lao Gong and the others had nothing to gain. These people were very stubborn and would rather die than reveal any information. Lao Gong didn't catch a single person.

Lao Gong was very angry, but he didn't know that someone was already furious.

But Zi Baifeng, who watched with cold eyes, could see clearly.

It wasn't just Jiuying who wanted to kill him.

He could clearly see how the spiritual power of several people was operating.

Zhongshan School.

Nine days passed by in a flash. For others, it was an extremely difficult nine days, but for Zi Baifeng, it was different.

He has tiles in hand, and when he has nothing to do, he uses them to check the situation at home, the situation in Mengcheng, and pass the time.

For nine days, nothing seemed to have changed.

In the past nine days, something has changed.

After the unsuccessful assassination of Zi Baifeng, somewhere in Xijing, a person rose up against the crime: "We can't wait any longer. If we wait for him to tear down all our important hubs, it may be too late."

"The big plan is about to start now."

　For the last update of this month, I seem to be in debt, sweat... I will try my best to pay it back next month.

　　After all parties have laid the groundwork, the climax is about to begin.
