"Brother Lu!" Zhu Yushan couldn't help it.

"Don't worry, Brother Zhu!"

Lu Zheng patted Zhu Yushan's hand and comforted him, "Now that you have succeeded in cultivation and your life span has been greatly increased, even if you take the exam again, It doesn’t matter for twelve years, it won’t have a big impact.”

Zhu Yushan, “…”

“Chichi——”

Li Hanyuhe Liu Qingyan was already hugging each other with laughter.

Zhu Yushan opened his mouth, actually thinking whether he would have to take the exam for another twelve years, and for a moment he forgot to talk back.

Li Hanyu couldn't see that her husband was being bullied, so he poked Liu Qingyan and signaled her to ask Lu Zheng to restrain herself.

Liu Qingyan understood and stretched her foot under the table to kick Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng raised his eyebrows, so he stopped making fun of Zhu Yushan, and just raised his glass and touched Zhu Yushan.

"Originally we said we were going to get together after the exam and go sightseeing, but Brother Zhu had an accident again this time, I don't know..."

"I didn't know Get used to it. If you haven’t caught up, you haven’t caught up. Let’s continue next year.”

Zhu Yushan shook his head and said, “Just like Brother Lu said, now that I have succeeded in cultivation, I want to see this bad luck. How many times can Lun Gaiding stop me!"

"Okay! Be ambitious!"

Lu Zheng gave a thumbs up, and Li Hanyu also looked at Zhu affectionately. Yushan.

"It's rare for Brother Lu to come here, and let Zhu do his best as a landlord. Yizhou is not a small place, and there are still some places that can be visited."

"Then it will be hard work. Best wishes, brother." Lu Zheng raised his glass and said with a smile, "Have a good time, then clean up your mood, recover your mentality, go home and prepare for the exam, and continue next year!"

Zhu Yushan, "..."

Li Hanyu, "..."

……

"There is a white stone screen wall in the forest not far ahead. It is actually a cliff as smooth as a mirror. There are some inscriptions on it by Jinshi or officials who returned in the spring."

On a stony mountain road, Lu Zheng and others were entering the mountain under the leadership of Zhu Yushan.

“Many students will come here to gather in their free time, admire the writings of their predecessors, and exchange what they have learned with each other.”

“In addition, these peaks are also relatively easy to climb. , the state capital has also built a stone mountain road, which is easy to walk. Many people go to the mountains to enjoy the coolness in summer."

"There are clear springs and streams in the mountains, bamboo forests and pine cones, and occasionally golden pheasants and hares." Zhu Yushan While walking, he introduced, "The scenery in the mountains is good.Go to several mountaintops and overlook the state capital for even better views. "

"This place is not far from the state capital, so there are no large beasts, right? " Lu Zheng asked.

Zhu Yushan nodded, "There is a town to the north of this mountain. If there are wild beasts in this mountain forest, I am afraid that the people in the state capital will not know about it, and they will be killed in the town. The hunters brought the hunt to the Yamen to receive the reward. "

"The state capital is bustling with people and noisy fireworks, and no beast with brains will come close. Liu Qingyan added.

Several people turned a few more corners, and in addition to the sound of birdsong and streams, they heard a burst of human voices coming from a place blocked by large rocks and trees in front of them.< br />
　“Is there anyone? "

"It's not summer yet, and it's still a little cool in the mountains at this time. It should be a scholar who has finished the exam. " Zhu Yushan explained.

Several people walked through the mountain road, and a relatively wide open space in front came into view.

This open space has no slope and trees. It has also been cut down and cleared. The mountain wall to the west is rugged with strange rocks. There is a stream flowing down the mountain wall. There are several drops on the road, so the water flows loudly, the water mist agitates, and the air is moist.

To the east is a tall and smooth white stone wall, which is more than ten feet in diameter. There is not a single crack or a trace of weeds on it. It is worthy of being called the white stone screen wall.

Above the screen wall, there is a high There are many poems and texts in the high and low Ti, some are square and square, or some are written in a dragon and snake style, with extraordinary momentum.

In the open space, next to the stream in the west, two pavilions were built in the south and north. There are several stone tables and benches surrounding the pavilion. At this time, four scholars were sitting around the pavilion on the north side, talking loudly, drinking and having fun.

In addition to the scholars, there were also several students in colorful clothes. Accompanied by a beautiful woman, she poured wine to make up for her laughter, smiling sweetly. Every frown and every smile made people feel like they were in the spring breeze. There was a light of admiration in their eyes, and they looked like professionals.

Lu Zheng and the others saw those People, of course those people also saw the arrival of Lu Zheng and the others.

GU/span “Zhu Yushan? Lu, Mr. Lu? "

"Huh? "Lu Zheng narrowed his eyes, does anyone know him here?

" Mr. Duan? "Lu Zheng raised his eyebrows. It turned out to be the scholar Duan Xian whom he had met once at the Lushui Ferry.

Seeing that Lu Zheng actually recognized him, Duan Xian couldn't help but smile. He hurriedly stood up to greet him.

"What are you..."

"That Liu Sheng is a friend of mine. I feel good about this exam and I have a good chance of being a scholar, so we are Let’s meet here to pay homage to the writings of our seniors, and to prepare for next autumn.Encourage each other. ”

When Lu Zheng looked around, he saw a young scholar about fifteen or sixteen years old sitting in the middle of a few people, holding a gorgeous woman in his arms and drinking from a glass of wine.

"Haha, it's good...it's good..." Lu Zheng nodded and smiled.

"Zhu Yushan, but that bad luck is raining down on Zhu Yushan? "That Liu Sheng suddenly reacted, and then he also stood up and came over, joking, "I wonder if Brother Zhu took the exam this year? ”

Which pot should not be opened?

Duan Xian’s expression changed and he was about to scold him, but Zhu Yushan waved his hand.

He is used to it.

So he shook his head and smiled, "Unlucky, I forgot the time in seclusion and missed it again. "

"Chi—"

Liu Sheng couldn't help but laugh, "You forgot the exam time when you were studying in seclusion? "

"Liu Sheng, be silent! "Duan Xian immediately interrupted Liu Sheng.

" Huh? "Liu Sheng was a little puzzled for a moment.

What happened to Zhu Yushan, a poor scholar from a poor family, making fun of him?

Lu Zheng glanced at the other person's bluish face and couldn't help but He shook his head and said to Duan Xian, "You gather yourselves and don't worry about us. "

"Okay! good! ”

Duan Xian pulled Liu Sheng away, gritting his teeth secretly in his heart, thinking that it was a good opportunity to build a relationship, but Liu Sheng ruined it.

Sent away The scholars left, and Lu Zheng and others visited the Zhaobi inscription, and then continued climbing.

When they arrived at the top of this hill, it was about several miles away from the city, a magnificent city. The scenery that caught his eye was indeed very shocking.

But...

Lu Zheng turned around and looked at the mountains behind him, and there was another mountain that was higher than the other. I didn’t recite the song “The Great Killing Weapon”.

…

After a half-day tour, I went down the mountain and returned to the city. However, I didn’t meet those scholars on the way down, and I didn’t know who they were. I went back early and went to see the scenery elsewhere in the mountains.

Although Zhu Yushan is from Yizhou Prefecture, his home is in a surrounding town, so he also lived in Yuelai with Lu Zheng Inn.

Early the next morning, the four of them gathered in the inn lobby again, discussing where to go.

But as they were talking, Lu Zheng discovered that There are fewer and fewer guests. Whenever the innkeeper goes to greet a guest, the guest at that table will quickly get up and leave.

Until the end, just when the innkeeper and the waiters were about to hide in the back kitchen, Zhu Yushan and others also realized that something was wrong.

"What's going on?"

The next moment, several detectives quickly entered the door and spread around.

The first man, who was wearing a headcatcher's costume, came to the four of them with light steps and asked in a solemn voice, "Zhu Yushan?"

"Is it me?" Zhu Yushan raised his head curiously, not knowing why a police officer was looking for him.

The chief arrest officer glanced at Lu Zheng and Liu Qingyan, his eyes flashed with surprise, and then turned to intense vigilance, "There is a case involving you."
