Mutated Tao: Zhuge Yuan Extra Story 1: Starting
Chapter 1029 Zhuge Yuan Extra Story 1: The half-worn wooden boat is like a pair of scissors, cutting through the picturesque emerald green water.
Seeing that he was about to reach his destination, Zhuge Yuan, who was sitting in the boat shed, couldn’t hold back his curiosity and anticipation, and ran to the bow of the boat with his book basket on his back, looking ahead.
“Young man, be careful, if you fall, the old man, I will go down the river to catch you.
” The boat owner who was pole-pulling said with a smile.
“Old man, haven’t you arrived yet?” Zhuge Yuan asked impatiently.
“Don’t worry, Yixiantian will arrive at Baixia City in less than half an hour, and you can see it after passing the bend ahead. The krill cakes in Baixiacheng are excellent, but the shrimp can only be found in Jingzhe. I’m afraid you won’t be lucky if you go at this time.
” Zhuge Yuan, who was standing at the bow of the boat, heard that it was still half an hour, and immediately sat down on the bow of the boat with regret, with the tip of his white shoe hanging on the water, drawing a waterline.
He raised his hands over his shoulders and stretched his waist, “Hehe, it’s okay, Xiaosheng, I went to study in Baixia, and next year Jingzhe will definitely be able to eat it.
” “Study? Go to Baixiacheng to study? Could it be Minglun Hall? “The old man showed surprise on his face.
Zhuge Yuan nodded immediately when he heard this.
“Well! It’s Minglun Hall, and the teacher said it was the senior Wang Changxu of Minglun Hall.
” “Oh, it’s amazing, it’s amazing, tsk tsk tsk.
” Hearing the admiration in the words, Zhuge Yuan smiled and cupped his hands towards the old man, “Old man, I’m overwhelmed, may I ask if Minglun Hall is famous in Baixia City? “The old man’s eyes widened suddenly, “Oh, it’s not only famous in Baixia City, but also in the whole Daqi. You can go in by yourself, but you don’t know where Minglun Hall is? “”Uh…” Zhuge Yuan was a little embarrassed and didn’t know how to answer, he couldn’t say that he just came out of the mountains.
But the old man didn’t think too much, and started to explain to Zhuge Yuan.
“The Minglun Hall is a place where you can learn from the university. As long as you can enter the Minglun Hall, you don’t need to take the number one exam, and you can become an official immediately after you come out!” “But I heard that many people enter the Minglun Hall. After entering the Minglun Hall, I don’t want to be an official anymore. Only a few people come out to be an official.
” “Oh? Then dare to ask the old man, what are the other people who are not in the court doing in Minglun Hall? “Zhuge Yuan couldn’t help being curious about the place his teacher introduced.
“Study!” The old man said proudly, “Study? Dare I ask what kind of knowledge?” Zhuge Yuan’s words immediately stumped the old man, “I don’t know, I’m not a scholar, you Look, there is Baixia City in front of you. When you arrive at Minglun Hall, you can ask the people inside.
” As Zhuge Yuan turned his head, he found a magnificent ancient city gradually exposed from the cover of the steep cliff.
The first thing that catches the eye is the wharf, where passenger ships and cargo ships are crowded and struggling to move in the wharf, yelling constantly.
Zhuge Yuan looked up from the pier, and the huge moss wall hung with vines merged with the surrounding green mountains and green waters.
Coupled with today’s mist, it is like the scene in the painting.
As the distance gradually approached, Zhuge Yuan saw more details, such as the majestic towers on the city wall, the antique sculptured animal heads on the city wall, and the flags on the city wall.
“Wow, this is Baixia City!” Zhuge Yuan exclaimed in amazement, it was the first time he had seen such a large city since he was sensible.
When he got on the pier, he ran towards the ever-greater city wall with the bamboo basket on his back.
Passing through the city gate, a bustling scene greets you, and the streets are full of people. In addition to the shops on both sides, there are also various small businesses and hawkers lined up along the roadside.
For Zhuge Yuan who had never seen so many people before, he couldn’t see all this with his eyes.
With continuous observation, he gradually understood the true appearance of some things in his book.
The wafting scent of incense attracted Zhuge Yuan to look at the shrine in the left room, a snake-headed **** wearing white jade armor.
Standing behind the fluttering fireworks, it looks extraordinarily mysterious.
In front of the statue is a black lacquer tablet, on which is written seven cursive characters, the position of General Yuli.
The two women were kneeling in front of the altar, chanting words while shaking the bamboo sticks in the bamboo tubes in their hands.
“Well, do the people in Baixia City still believe this? Doesn’t the book say that no one believes it? The master is really right. It really is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books.
” Zhuge Yuan continued to walk forward, stopping to watch places he was interested in from time to time. The splendor of the outside world made him regret that he hadn’t come out a few years earlier.
Walking and watching, when Zhuge Yuan came back to his senses again, he found that the sun hanging in the sky had already hung half of its body on the city wall.
“It’s broken, it’s broken, I forgot about the business.
” Zhuge Yuan poured all the fried tofu wrapped in lotus leaves into his mouth, muttered and chewed, and ran towards Minglun Hall.
After shopping around for a long time, he actually found out where the Minglun Hall was, but Zhuge Yuan felt that there was still time, so let’s play first.
It’s just that I didn’t expect that time passed so quickly.
As dusk fell, the walls of Baixia City gradually became dim with the afterglow of the setting sun. Zhuge Yuan finally arrived in front of Minglun Hall before the sky completely dimmed.
At the moment when the creaking door was about to close with a bang, Zhuge Yuan’s hand slapped heavily on the round copper nail of the door.
“Wait!” When the closed nursing home opened the door in confusion, they saw a handsome young man resting his hands on his knees, gasping for breath.
“Come back tomorrow, the time has passed.
” After finishing the nursing home with a strong attitude, it will be closed again.
“Brother, don’t! The curfew is about to come. My wife has an old relationship with Wang Changxu of Minglun Hall. Please be considerate.
” As Zhuge Yuan said, he quickly took out the letter from his wife from the bamboo basket and handed it over.
The nurse took the letter, looked at it hesitantly, and then looked at Zhuge Yuan again.
“Wait” and the door slammed shut again.
Wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, Zhuge Yuan let out a long breath, looked up at the huge plaque of Minglun Hall above his head, and thought to himself: “I really want to study here in the future? “Looking left and right to see if there was no one, he secretly peeked inside through the crack of the door.
Through the gap in the door is a magnificent building with well-proportioned eaves, pillars and walls that are clearly visible. There are many sword bamboos planted around the building, rustling as the evening wind blows.
“Cough!” The light coughing sound from behind startled Zhuge Yuan, he quickly turned around, and saw an old man with curly hair in a black and white robe, staring at him with frowning.
To be honest, this person looks very ordinary, not as bright as the old man on the wooden boat, but his eyes are so radiant that people dare not look directly at them.
“Boy, are your master and senior Wang Changxu old friends?” “Huh?” Zhuge Yuan was stunned, glanced at the closed door, then at the old man in front of him, and quickly stood up and saluted him.
Before Zhuge Yuan could open his mouth, the words from the other party made him unable to open his mouth, “Senior Wang Changxu has been immortal for a hundred years, is your teacher really an old friend with Senior Wang Changxu?” I will publish it after I finish writing it. Many readers told me that they are eager to read it. Then I will post a chapter first, and I will post it one after another. There are about 5-10 chapters in Zhuge Yuan’s episode. Please stay tuned
